He's handling it like an adult, actually, not like a dumb child engaging in retarded threats and name-calling on Twitter.
Good idea...perhaps people can turn that switch off whenever they want to... they just choose to leave it on. Why do you suppose that is so? Why do they choose to stay on the roller coaster?
Maybe @Josh77 is right....maybe "the world is slowly waking up" as he has suggested. You say....."War, competition, jealousy, anger etc are in every one of us." Surely we are all capable of those things....but they are not requirements to be human. Those are merely choices preferred by some...
Some call it posturing. Joe is just a slouch and an appeaser. Maybe $500,000 / painting will grease the skids.
Like paying inflated rates at a Trump hotel in return for special favors? Nah. Joe doesn't operate that way.
So you think children with jealousy, anger, spite, love, curiosity, attention seeking etc actualy CHOOSE those characteristics? I don't think so. Does someone chose to be a sexual person? It's said that 'life is unfair' and that is true. Attempts to make it fair can flounder badly when create institutions, ideology or religious ideals that can remedy human nature - making life even more unfair. The best way to handle life is to recognize, respect and be aware of our nature, and that of everyone else.
Hence, the "Problem". He was accused of being in a basement hiding from campaigning while Orange Jesus was holding super spreader events all over the place. It was a good play as OJ got himself fired. I wonder how many people contracted COVID and died or almost died after attending one of those events. I would guess each of them have at least 10 loved ones jump ship from backing him. It's kind of sad that a person acting sane is considered "an issue".
It is surely possible for everyone to have those feelings.... but acting on those thoughts is still something they "CHOOSE" to do. People are not forced into their insane behavior. Life is not unfair at all....except in their own minds....form their own perspective. Just because someone somewhere said something, does not necessarily make it so. That may be so....but...."our nature, and that of everyone else" is not those things you are claiming it to be. It never was so. Our (true) nature, and that of everyone else....is joy.
Well obviously then you're highly deceived, or part of the problem. Baphomet by the way, is the god of liberals and the one world order. He reigns supreme in the EU. When Satan Reigns Whatever's false they'll say it's true and throw the lies back onto you. And what is right they'll say it's wrong. Then woe to all, it won't be long. When everyone will wear a frown. For what is 'up', they'll call it 'down'. Then try to make the day a night so dark can reign, without the light. - Jeannette
Let me explain. As Christians, we believe in God's Holy Spirit, which is also called the 'Comforter', because He gives us peace from passions and comforts us. As an example, I noticed that when someone harms a child, you can always tell if the parent is a (true) Christian and has acquired the Holy Spirit, because if they did, they will never say that they won't have peace unless the person that hurt their child suffers for what they did. This isn't because they are suppressing their passions, it's because the passions such as revenge, hate, jealousy, lust, etc., have ceased to exist in them - depending of course on their extent of God's Grace. If you recall way back when some Amish children were killed, and how none of the parents showed anger at the killer or wanted them to suffer for what they did. It's because they were Graced with the Holy Spirit. Would revenge have brought their children back? No! So why suffer with feelings of revenge, anger and hate? You would only be hurting yourself. HOLY SPIRIT
Parental instinct is quite universal and does not come from Christianity or any other religious tradition.
The first command of God and nature is to protect and promote your own kind. Ignore the evil antichrist cultural marxists who sometimes travel incognito pretending to be what they are not. .
The grieving and pain is universal. The hatred and desire for revenge comes from man's fallen nature.
Nature doesn't issue commands and humans invent divine commandments in the process of inventing gods. In fact, it's one of the historical reasons gods were invented - to lend false authority to human edicts and get others to accept rule and domination by the jerk(s) doing the inventing.
Only to those who lack the peace of the Holy Spirit in their hearts. They're looking for comfort through revenge. This is why there are endless wars and suffering.
Again, what would a religious bigot like you know about it? And given that you're from the heretical Eastern Orthodox Church (ie. Catholic with none of Catholicisms good parts) even more how would you have a "Christian perspective".
