  • Okay, that’s pretty funny. In all seriousness, I don’t have a complete solution. First step is to end corporate ownership of single-family homes. I’d also like to see a property tax rate that increases geometrically based on total area of land a person owns as well as the value of the land. Nobody, no matter how productive, should be able to own 8000 square kilometers under any circumstances, but especially when we have unhoused people working 40 hours per week.












  • Alternatively, perhaps the rapture isn’t the gift it seems. We could just be living in a bioreactor for food production, like sourdough. The bad ones get thrown in the garbage (Hell/Sheol. This is the earliest Biblical definition of Hell, “The trash pile”). The good ones are harvested by the angels for God to consume and metabolize.

    Matthew 13:30-39

    30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’ ”

    31 He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field.

    32 Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.”

    33 He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into about sixty poundsof flour until it worked all through the dough.”

    34 Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable.

    35 So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: “I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world.”

    36 Then he left the crowd and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”

    37 He answered, “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man.

    38 The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one,

    39 and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
