Moral Decline of Capitalism - Work by Karl Marx - Manuscripts
-->
@Best.Korea
In essence, species-being represents the ideal of human existence – a life of creativity, freedom, and fulfillment. Capitalism, according to Marx, hinders this ideal by reducing individuals to mere commodities and exploiting their labor.
Communism is in decline. Even Russia and China are pro capitalist.

Russia currently a capitalist country?
The Russian economy has been volatile over the past multiple decades. After 1989, its institutional environment was transformed from a command economy based upon socialist organizations to a capitalistic system.


Is China a capitalist country?
State owned economy has played an irreplaceable role in China's socialist modernisation drive. Other Marxist analyses point out that because the Chinese economic system is based on commodity production, has a role for private capital and disempowers the working class, it represents a capitalist economy.

Property taxes on houses you don't live in
You seem to think sitting on your mom’s couch eating Cheetos and thinking up stupid shit is "helping people", and you are comically arrogant about it, well, other than that, is there anything else you do, have you ever actually been in the arena, ever actually helped someone by actually doing something to help, not counting doing something inanely theoretical on the couch, something you had to get off the couch to do that actually helped someone?  Time to make something up and tell us all about it.
He is a couch potato.

Well you see,  just with those two comments, you  fallen right into the same self dug  pit as those Christians that say to others that they "do not understand the bible because they do not speak, read or understand koine Greek"..  Because  by being in such a hurry to display their haughty  imagined biblical knowledge and after painting themselves into a corner,  they have condemned all bibles ever written in English to the rubbish bin. As you have with any Quran that has ever been written in English.
Do you see my point, Shila?
There is a big difference between the Bible and Quran.

According to Islamic theology, the Qur'an is a revelation very specifically in Arabic, and so it should only be recited in Quranic Arabic. Translations into other languages are the work of humans and so, according to Muslims, no longer possess the uniquely sacred character of the Arabic original.

Translations of the Bible
Many Christians over the centuries have felt that in order for the Great Commission to be completed successfully it is important that the Bible should be available to 'all nations,' in their own languages. This has meant that the Bible has been translated into many languages.

Yes, the cure for murder is homelessness.
California went for stricter gun laws to reduce homicide rates.
California has the strongest gun laws in the country—along with some of the lowest rates of gun deaths and gun ownership. Thanks to strong leadership, California continues to innovate with its gun safety laws.

The Assassination of John F Kennedy - a new forensic take based on FACTS
-->
@zedvictor4
But there will always be a JFK assassination conspiracy theory.

Sixty years after the JFK assassination, it’s still unclear why Oswald shot the president, fueling countless conspiracies—like whether his successor Lyndon B. Johnson was behind the assassination. (He was not.) The continued fascination over who killed JFK and why helps provide context for the conspiracy theories that continue to dominate American politics today.

Maybe RFK has a theory of his own.

I am not of the opinion that it is bad IF humans all share the same values and goals. I am saying that it is misguided to assume that humans globally share the same values and goals, which humanism appears to do. I am about living in the world as it is, not as I wish it were.
You would know better about the world you live in once you learn more about yourself which for now is labeled “unknown”.

@CatholicApologetics
Thus, they did not need to "experience" evil beforehand to understand that rejecting God's command was evil.
They did not experience evil. They became aware of their nakedness before God.
Genesis 3: , “Where are you?”
10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”
11 And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”

God immediately knew they became aware of their nakedness after eating from the tree of knowledge. Because God enjoyed seeing the couple naked in the Garden he was upset to see they covered up their naked bodies. This alone was God’s priority over the incident. It was not that they would die, but they would no longer be naked before him.

Let's talk about univocality, bitches

@Castin
So I'll extend the question: why should we believe the Bible is univocal? Why should it be read that way? We can get a better understanding of the Bible by treating it as multivocal. Change my mind.
Hard to see the Bible as univocal when it is made up of 66 books written by different authors spread over a period of time.

Here the Bible seems to be suggesting the value of a fetus is less than the value of a born human, treating the fetus more as property than a person. Discuss.
The Bible affirms the personhood of the unborn.

Now the word of the LORD came to me, saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.” God's call of the prophet Jeremiah is yet another example of the Bible acknowledging the personhood of the unborn.

first images of Israeli hostages being released

@Best.Korea
Not sure what was the point of taking hostages if they will just release them.

The hostage exchange benefits the Palestinians.
Israel released 90 Palestinian prisoners and detainees in exchange for three Israeli hostages held in Gaza as part of the ceasefire deal ...

Over the next six weeks, 30 more hostages are expected to be released, as are hundreds of Palestinian prisoners.

Thats that for inauguration. Now we must watch Trump's moves, and how does he plan to manage the world with this one chance he has. If he fails in next 4 years, he is not getting elected again for sure. I am not going to predict anything, because Trump will either have great success or great failure. He is based on being extreme like that.
Annexation of Canada as the 51 state was not mentioned in Trump’s speech or Greenland.

Why did sexist cultures worship goddesses?
-->
@Castin
Let us take, for instance, the example of ancient Athens. Aristotle writes, "the male is by nature superior and the female inferior, the male ruler and the female subject." He writes that her intellect can never have authority or participation in politics. Naturally, women were not allowed in philosophical schools or pursuits.

Did the ancient Greeks, especially in Athens, see any contradiction in their city be dedicated to the goddess of wisdom, but women in their city weren't able to vote and go to schools? How they justified that, or to them, simply there wasn't a problem?

Today it strikes me as an odd set of circumstances that the greeks had several goddesses that participated in male-dominated activities, but still were severely discriminative and dismissal of women in most cities states. Is there some sort of explanation for that?

Is the Quran meant to be taken literally, Shila?  
The prophet Mohammad performed  no miracles or supernatural events in the Quran. 
It can only be read in Arabic.
How does the Quran differ from the Bible?
The Bible was written/received by 40 different authors over 1500 years. Most of the authors didn't know each other and their records are eye witness accounts of event. The Quran was written and received by one person over 20 years. He was not an eyewitness to any of the events.
