The very wealthy do shop at warehouse clubs, Walmart, etc. You won’t see them being walking advertisements for clothing lines, either. They do buy quality clothing, but they aren’t overtly branded, unless they’re casual, work or sports clothing. They may drive nice cars, many will own a regular 90s model Pontiac or something. They also don’t plan their money for years, rather in centuries. There’s a difference in behavior and attitude between old money and nuveau riche, as well.

Yeah, I’m familiar with Discordianism and Bob Dobbs too.
That’s a lot of words to say truth is relative.
There’s no reason Christianity can’t be compatible with any other religion, including pagan. And really no reason Judaism can’t, either, considering yhwh is a sumarían war god.
I recently accompanied a neighbor to a neighborhood event at a local church. It was kind of neat because when a lady kept mentioning “the Lord” my mind kept dubbing in “Baal.”
“What has been seen can not be unseen,” apparently including in the mind’s eye. Also, read as much of the Ethiopian Bible as you can, I can totally see a really chill RPG based on it.
Upvote for “gauche.” Because it is.
Wish the brigaders would read that thread

Where did you find this?
Yes, we have one locally.
Thanks. That’s a liberal (sorry, I couldn’t resist) definition of socialism he used there too, even allowing for the “national” qualifier.
It seems I read once that “socialist” was just in the party name to garner support of those who would be supportive of socialist values. I can’t recall the publication, but wonder if that’s true?
ROFL. Some kids from ACE schools might remind you of some of his clients. I’ll say it again: sociopaths are made.
Wait till you hear about evangelical ACE schools.
They are human beings, these are human behaviors, and it’s not “no true human would…” Of course they would, and easily, too. My only point was to highlight differences in our concepts of wealth, and theirs.
Indeed.
