If some of you cons could ever wrap your head around it, you'd realize your notions of graduated wealth to denote privilege and hoard resources in disproportionate access and distribution due to reliance on a symbol with no intrinsic value that enslaves humanity - money - are obsolete and counterproductive to the advancement of all humankind. In simple terms, money is an outdated tool for regulating an economy of available resources. Nothing is ever going to change; we will still have chest-thumping politicians slurring each other, cockfighting for our votes to legislate what is unlegislative because the laws of man are irrelevant. The only laws that we observe are the laws of nature. Nature has given us the gift of evolution that has led to this fantastic level of technological advancement, yet we use it to greedily consume and destroy the Earth's resources rather than use it to uplift all humanity. This is a terribly impractical thing to do as it will soon lead to our global extinction.
Look, I'm obviously not a religious person, but I was raised in a Christian household and went to church at a Baptist Church of Christ. I do believe that there is some actual history in the Bible yet tainted by primitive superstition and folklore. However the beauty of those ancient religious texts to me represents the artistic majesty of their testament to seek the knowledge and truth of the the human spirit through the power of our intellect and imagination. For instance, the Bible has this to say:
Matthew 6:19 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal."
Matthew 6:20 "But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal."
Matthew 19:21 Jesus answered, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."
Luke 12:21 "This is how it will be with anyone who stores up things for himself but is not rich toward God."
By naming categories of humans "parasites," fighting over which religious philosophy is the best, and hoarding wealth oftentimes many hundreds or thousands of times greater than what is necessary to live with a decent quality of life for all you break your own god's commandment. Many religions mandate spiritual advancement yet all fall short of success in the talons of religious and governmental corruption by the powerhungry mercenary elite driven mad by their own device that enslaves all of humankind - The Almighty Dollar. Be you true men and women of God/Yahweh/Jehovah/Allah, et al, you would cast off all excesses as per His command and turn your labors towards truly helping your fellow humans. For we are the great symbiont of Planet Earth meant to usher in a new kingdom of peace and enlightenment not avarice and destruction
