He does a good impersonation of someone born in the United States. Not bad for a secret Islamic terrorist undermining the way of life you find so appealing. I do wonder though at what point in his second term he will reveal himself as the Antichrist and the Hidden Imam, drop neutron bombs on Israel, divorce Michelle and marry his secret Sufi gay lover in a public gay marriage...Vive la liberte.

To be honest, imo, working as a community organizer seems far more Christ honoring than working as a businessman.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

By what measure? It is convenient to speak of the selfless community organiser but more realistic to speak of them as a set of people whose actions do not translate into a set of rewards for success and disincentives for failure. Businessmen alleviate poverty far more effectively than conmunity organisers or non-profits.Originally posted by Imran Siddiqui View Post"You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours."--General Sir Charles James NapierComment

I am positive that businessmen go into business first and foremost in order to alleviate poverty.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

They all do. (to alleviate their own poverty)
It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

HC, do you know anything about anything?“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

I also wouldn't arrange my economic policies around archaic superstition and feel-good bull****. If somebody does something good as a side effect of a selfish act, who cares that it was for selfish reasons? It really doesn't matter. Outcomes are important. Motives aren't.If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

So, Mr. Ends-Justify-the Means, why exactly wade into a comment made by a Christian quite obviously in response to another Christian discussing the relative merits of businessman and community organizer?“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Somebody who thinks the ends don't justify the means has a flawed understanding of the meaning of the word "ends". All consequences are ends.If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?
