This child needs to be removed from his parents and placed into custody of a foster home. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobU Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 12 minutes ago, spidermike007 said: This world is absolutely chock-full of insane nutty, phony people who will do anything in their power to avoid work and commit scams by robbing people of their money. What this boy is doing is just pure silliness, the people who should be prosecuted are the idiots that fall for the scam, they have utterly no survival instincts and they're not fit for this world. Zero sympathy. I doubt that an 8 year old boy thought this up more likely he is a victim being used by scammers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fondue zoo Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) 10 hours ago, Jenkins9039 said: I've long said... the reason there isn't new Messiahs today is because they'd either be locked up, sent to a mental institute or killed for having the gall to come out, or lastly ridiculed. So why do we put so much faith in old Messiahs recognising the people of the time, were worse logically thinking in their era and or superstitious to a degree considered mental today. This is a good point, there was a discussion somewhere about this, something akin to a Ted Talk. Basically the majority of old structures will never give way to something new, the core religions of the world will brook no opposition or interference. If Jebus was to arrive tomorrow he would definitely have to lean heavily on the magic miracles, and even if he raised someone from the dead again, or stopped bullets like Neo, they would still say he is not our the guy. Governments also don't like miracles, it makes the nervous, it gives people ideas and makes them uppity. I'm not stating here that one thing is real and another is not, how the heck would I know. All I see as I've gotten older is that many have made/convinced themselves that we are the pinnacle of creation, the darling favorite of the divine, and we know how the cosmos/existence works. We're such imaginative rascals. Edited May 15 by fondue zoo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as they start talking about magic and other planes of existence and the beings therein, whilst wearing matching jackets. Yes it does look that way, many versions of Christianity have popped up all over the world, mostly cults, or, cults in disguise, only a matter of time b4 Thailand catches on.
