Texas Drifter: False Prophets For Unethical Profits
Marshall’s Law Dateline – There is a difference between using faith to serve Heaven, and wasting faith on false prophets’ cult leader vanities.
Examples: Compare America’s Founding Fathers who asked citizens to serve with faith for America’s future; to contemporary false prophets who are asking people to follow me, and my faith like Obama and G. Beck.
How many examples are there of America’s greatest leaders asking people to believe in “me”? Now ask the same question about Obama and many conservatives masquerading as false prophets claiming you will be indebted to them for saving America. Did not Washington like Cincinnatus choose to retire from political office rather than allow their vanities to make them tyrants?
Many conservative talk radio hosts including Limbaugh seem to worship capitalism as a God. How reader asks, by failing to distinguish between ethical capitalism and unethical capitalism. Translation, integrity of self defense actions depends on motives of person pulling the trigger. Integrity of economic deals depends on motives of those negotiating transaction.
Recall example that offering a starving man ten dollars for a hundred dollar horse is unethical capitalism; while offering starving man eighty dollars for hundred dollar horse is good business.
Capitalism not guided by some laws and regulations facilitates fraud, stealing, and monopolies which all reflect unethical capitalism. Greatest threats to capitalism are those like Limbaugh and others who bring pox on capitalism by tolerating with their silence, circumstances which cause the less informed to believe that capitalism and all capitalists are bad.
The message should be that there is only one best economic system which is ethical capitalism. Why, it allows both parties to voluntarily engage in economic activities that both parties perceive as being in their best interest.
Worst economic systems are:
1. Marxist-socialist economy, where all property and means of production are owned by government;
2. Fascist economy is where all property and means of production are owned by private citizens who are so regulated by governments that Marxist-socialism that fascism and eventually blend in same tyranny;
3. Unethical capitalism is based on fraud; deception of products or services delivered; crony capitalism; other dishonest or corrupt dealings. Note about crony capitalism. Crony is defined as close friend of long standing while cronyism in contemporary terms refers to partialities to cronies especially in public sector. Crony capitalism is only one type of unethical capitalism. Reader’s assignment, list other types of unethical capitalism.
As there will always be those who choose to be false prophets driven by cult leader vanities; there will always be those who know the difference between right and wrong who refuse to follow false prophets. Reader might consider following excerpts from “Was James’ Brother Jude Right?” (July 26, 2010)before working on their list of other types of unethical capitalism.
Marshall’s Law Townhall Dateline – Some problems do not have easy or pleasant solutions. Examples:
1. Texas Drifter knew a father who gave his heroin addicted daughter money so she did not have to prostitute herself or steal to get money to buy her heroin. Her father asked me what I thought, told him he and his daughter were going down a road without a happy ending. He said I did not know what it was like to have a heroin addicted daughter. With that I agreed, but said I knew what it was like to be blinded by bad decisions. We have never spoken since.
2. Following government and private sector partnerships: mortgage industry, student loans, health care services, public education, social services, financial industries, automobile industries, and other public bureaucrat and private citizens’ partnerships always travel down roads without happy endings.
3. Government should do what it does best: national security, domestic border security, civil law enforcement, fire suppression, emergency medical transport services, and few regulatory services to travel down roads with better endings.
Has the time has arrived for Americans to cease and desist, acting like the father who gave his daughter money to buy her heroin so as to protect his reputation and keep her out of trouble.
Translation free will private sector ethical capitalism is good. Other truth: public sector socialist fascism, Obama, Democrat Party, Moderate Republicans AKA closet Democrats, Obama’s Administration and worshipers of false prophets are taking America down a road with no different an ending than the one for the father who gave his daughter money to buy her heroin.
Moving on to moral of this writing exercise: Texas Drifter not being a religious scholar, wonders was not Jude, brother of James, concerned with early teachings by some Christian leaders that Christians can sin without risking salvation; because Heaven’s Son had already died for their sins? Jude’s own words from THE GENERAL EPISTLE OF JUDE:
Jude: 3 - … it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that you should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the Saints.
Jude: 5 – I will therefore put you in remembrance, though you once knew this, how the Lord, having saved the people out of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not.
Jude: 21 – Keep your selves in the love of God …
Was Paul (Galatians 5:13) also concerned with same issue troubling Jude?
Reader needs to be patience as above Judeo-Christian teachings tie into contemporary American history. Perhaps reader can help Texas Drifter non-religious scholar understand following: Would Heaven allow his only Son to be crucified so perpetual sinners could be given immunity for free will sins committed with advance expectation of Heaven’s Salvation. Back to question in title: Was James' Brother Jude Right?
Question translation: Does Heaven overturn his Son’s spiritual Salvation judgments? Texas Drifter is just asking a question that might also be of interest to Democrats and Moderate Republicans who apparently believe they are entitled to passes on all their premeditated free will sins involving breaking their oaths to Heaven to uphold, protect, and defend America’s Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Texas Drifter is still seeking answer: Was James' Brother Jude Right? (End excerpt)
Back to reader’s now a two part assignment: list other types of unethical capitalism, and explain why people need to be reminded that there are two types of capitalism – good and bad.
