Yeah messed me up that queue, que, and cue sound the same in English. Que was close enough to cue anyway


Lol what are word what does “caller” mean


That’s cool, but you’re still commanded to hate in the biblical sense by jesus what you changes but you still have to do it.
You can look at Jesus telling you to both sell and/or give up everything as a test, but you still gotta do it. Like you can say a litteral test to get a certificate is there to test your aptitude but you still gotta pass the test.
I also had a revelation that ownership is a time/culture dependant and God’s deciding after people been owning things for thousands of years at that point to say “give up everything”


I figured someone would. I was thinking of using a stone to break a nut or stand up a pot. If you leave the stone were you found it, it’s not like you own the stone.
But then we’re does it go from using something to owning something. Seems ownership would be more of a legal distinction or ownership is emotional attachment


Ikr. Like offer the other cheek wasn’t meant to show you passivism but like this way to get people you don’t like to use a other hand in a taboo way. I guess I have to assume it’s more correct interpretation since it’s relevant for that culture.
At this point Jesus can “you have to do X” and it get interpreted as a point for how you should live and think.


I was also thinking that followers must have been super poor. Since massage of give up everything and you’ll be rewarded would resonated to literal beggars or people who had nothing. Comes off as high yield return for the poor


Jesus kinda is weirdly enough. Like give up everything kinda explicit and the reward in heaven implies that however you live in this life will only be temporary suffering. So you could die in a ditch and life again in heaven. Heaven and God is what really matters.
But it’s weird like you can use things without owning them. Like they could give the shirt off their own back to someone that needs it just like they could presumably get it and I wouldn’t consider them owning the shirt just using it. Same goes for the phone too.
I’m not complaining about them having anything. It’s just odd that Jesus says give up everything but there work arounds because you can still use things without owning them


He was since money and clothes are included in everything
Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide yourselves with purses that will not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys.
Jesus being more explicit to his disciples about selling everything.
Like these are explicit things Jesus is requiring people to do. It’s not a metaphor to hate your family and your own life. Your actually supposed to do it.


If I learned I would forget over time


That sounds super frustrating. Hopefully you didn’t get that prosperity gospel nonsense. I could imagine people being like “you ain’t rich so you didn’t get God’s blessing”


Well robberies are very rare. No one says they they thwarted a mugging last week, plus really dangerous places are like a few blocks big, so you could just walk or drive around the worst of the worst.
If you robbed in your house, I’d just say lock whatever door your in and call the cops, robberies tend to be quick so they’ll go after what’s easy.
If you’re mugged is suggest looking your mugger in the face, talking casually, or comply with their demands.


Id think that would be owning too much for Jesus, but I guess they can use clothes and phone without owning it.
They probably just get happiness from experience and doing things


Hmmm. Yeah being a nun would do that. I know them more for celibacy than giving up worldly possession


Neat, I never see Christians going around preaching God and Jesus

I went to a garage sale where I got a oxygen concentrator and two Marlboro shopping baskets.
I wonder how much they smoked for the oxygen concentrator and how much they smoked for the oxygen concentrator.
But I saved a guy thousands of dollars selling him the oxygen concentrator

I don’t see how fediverse is responsible for solving echo chambers. I would say it’s on the individual to explore new ideas and to challenge everything.
Like an instance can just be 4chan offshoot that isn’t federated and complete echo chamber and hypothetically be the biggest instance. I would want any government telling them to federate, I wouldn’t want them to be forced to to federate, I’m perfectly fine with them having their party and inviting whoever they want, I can go somewhere else.
Plus fediverse is about giving control of social media to individuals
