and pure democracy is 50% +1. You don't think that power doesn't get abused? And if that process ends split near 50/50, you don't think the 49% are not going to fight it?
you have to compromise. power corrupt which is why we do democracy, 1 person 1 vote.

you suggest minority rule like we currently have economically? thats even worse. some countries have political minority rule officially. its terrible.

I'm not suggesting anything. I am saying that if democracy is divided there is no guarantee of compromise to the 49% that gets outvoted

The religious figures i quoted think its very difficult

So you can be rich and have a hard time getting into heaven or you can achieve salvation by donating your money for social justice
Maybe you should have your Ministers do that, some have an estimated $10m net worth. According to your definition of Christianity, they're not going to achieve salvation.

thats too much.

theyve also gone to jail too which i havent done yet, but it couldve happened to me

when you stand with the oppressed eventually you are treated like the oppressed. jesus stood with them, got popular, and was killed.

its the best system we got. i think theres different things you can do when its 1 person 1 vote, like consensus only.

Now now dear billy graham was worth a cool 25 million when he died
Remember the Bible didn’t say it’s impossible to get into heaven. If you’re rich it just said it’s very difficult.

The reason for that is rich people generally don’t rely on him. They rely on their selves, and that is a bad idea because human beings make inherently bad choices when they become arrogant and rich.


And it’s entirely possible Billy Graham won’t go to heaven. I won’t be the judge of that.
