2000? I would think more like the 500 year old Calvinist philosophy.

We are only accustomed to dealing with like twenty online personas at a time so when we only have about ten people some people have to be strawmanned in order to advance our same relative go nowhere nonsense positions. -TheReal_ND

Yes, evidently. As just one example: before SS & Medicare the elderly were very likely to live in poverty and have poor healthcare, Christian charity notwithstanding.Fife wrote:Do "Christians" need the state's guns and goons to be generous or charitable?
