Now I don't know what God considers Rich, but I am sure that he could find them in the top 1%.
I am sure you are a Christian who goes to church every Sunday but you are reaching here.

We now have the capability of making really big needles and if we screw around with genetics enough we can make really small camels.

Went this morning and this was the sermon. How am I reaching? I quoted the scripture. If you disagree with God, or you think it is unfair. Take it up with God.

I will do just that. Who knew such a hate filled person could be such a good Christian? I am inspired.

LOL, I'm not in the 1% so I needn't worry or "take it up with God" as you suggest. Do you cherry pick scriptures to suit your class warfare cause? Seems that way. At least I'm not violating the 10th Commandment that you seem to be having a difficult time with. If you don't like it or disagree with it, you best take it up with God.

I would be inspired if you could stay on topic and avoid personal attacks.

I guess the 1% thing depends on whether you are looking at the country or the world as a whole.... More of you are rich by world standards than you know....

You know what else is in the bible?

Jealousy.
Unfortunately this president started and engages not only in class warfare but racial warfare as well. until such a time as this idiot is removed from the Whitehouse we will continue to see this war escalate. My concern is that it will escalate beyond the point of no return. If folks think things are bad now regarding employment wait until the folks who provide jobs or would like to provide jobs get tired of being attacked. Jobs will move to friendlier countries,Kenyan economics will tell the idiot to expand government to make up for the losses, taxes on the middle class will raise to pay for increased government and the idiots foot soilders will really start hurting. This recession will look like good times...

The path to Socialism... Destroy the private sector
