Mark 10:22, the guy had “great wealth” and was unwilling to part with it. Donating that money away would have bought him treasures in heaven (why would someone want treasures in heaven if they had absolutely no source of greed?).
As for the Luke 16:13, I’d argue that it was saying you cannot worship money, in the sense of hoarding it and having stupid amounts of surplus.
Matthew 25:14-30 Jesus gives a parable praising the men who double their investments and then disparages the guy whos net return was zero. A sloppy Google search says a talent at that time was worth about a 20 years salary, why are the guys earning around 1.5 mil and 600k good?
Exmo take: there are divine attributes to each sin.
Sloth is to be meek and humble.
It is good to healthfully “lust” towards your lawfully wed spouce.
Take pride in your work, and family.
Be gluttonous in your education and church studies.
Be envious of God’s attention by doing good acts.
There is a righteous wrath in terms of self defense and protecting others from wrongdoing.
And greed, well you gotta be wealthy in order to afford giving God a nice juicy tithe. Also gotta be self sufficient.
There’s a bunch of mental gymnastics involved but that’s from when I was a “good mormon boy.”
Agreed, tried linux 6 months back, decided it wasn’t worth my time, will try another distro in another 6 months.
And this is from someone who installed and used mint through junior high.
My favorite is asking a call Rep if I can switch to phonetic, and then rattling off the spellings when given the go ahead.
The only reason I have it drilled into my head is because the warehouse I work at uses voice for confirming locations.
As an anxious and depressed dumbass this gives me copium.
What? Properly thought out city grids are amazing. Take an address 1234 5th street sw. The address is in the southwest quadrant, five streets west and twelve avenues south from city center. It isn’t perfect but it’s way easier than the town I moved to where George street turns into Jefferson and suddenly George street reappears as a completely different road.
The only big one I did was block posts that mention elon musk, my feed was getting flooded with posts at one point.
For a spell I also blocked keywords to us politics, probably should just block the actual political communities.
