[quote=flyer]It’s interesting to note that many people are “led by the nose” through life in many ways other than religion.
Millions “buy into” having to work for 30+ years, rather than realzing there are more efficient ways to make money over a shorter period of time, so they can truly enjoy life.
Some take jobs they can’t stand for decades, and try to make themselves believe it’s OK. Millions overextend themselves financially to the point of destruction. Millions spend everything they have and wonder why they can’t afford to retire, and on and on.
It’s certainly true that humans are capable of many forms of delusion.[/quote]
Kind of a secular prosperity gospel.
Definitely better to hang out at the rich church than the poor church. Better connections, less handout seeking deadbeat congregants ….
