Do you suffer hardships where you live?

Everything is so unequal in this world 🌍 and we have poverty increasing in our streets. In USA in California the homeless plight is scarring once famed and beautiful avenues, even in Hollywood! Those famous avenues are littered with the tents and cardboard shelters of the homeless!

Cities in Europe have a growing population of homeless and migrant people who arrive at their shores daily, some travelling to England endure the same hardships and risks of life as they did crossing the Mediterranean Sea! When will this steady flow of poverty stop?

Getting rid of religious zealotry would be a good start

@ChipmunkErnie While there is evidence that Paul contended with James, he never met Yeshua/Jesus, so apart from Jew hate, you forget Paul was Jewish and he was a Pharisee originally called Saul until his conversion; and what he taught in the various Anatolian congregations of Jewish converts was based in his educated understanding of the Christ message we call the Gospel. Your trying to split it up can only be described as Paulician and the church rejected the teachings of the Paulicians.

@DaliaCQ No, I didn't forget. A quick quote from The Bart Erhman Blog:

"It is often claimed that the Founder of Christianity was the apostle Paul – or at least that he was the co-Founder, along with Jesus.

The idea behind this claim is that Christianity is not really about the historical Jesus.

Yes, his words are hugely important, and yes it is also important to know that he did all those miraculous deeds. But his public ministry is not the core of Christian belief. Instead, the core of Christianity is the belief in his death and resurrection.

And this is what Paul preached, not what Jesus preached.

So that even if Jesus’ life and teachings are important, they are not really what Christianity is about. Christianity is about believing in his death and resurrection for salvation. And since, in this view, it was Paul who first formulated that belief, he is the founder of the Christianity religion (or co-founder)."

A. There is a trend in USA, some cities are having a number of people who have got detached from the well-fed well-housed mainstream & living in dereliction. Some are into drugs, and enslaved by it. Some have just given up
B. All over the world, there are communities who were self-sufficient through agriculture & rural economy.but now mega capital has disrupted that.

Perhaps when there is more opportunity for these people.

@Alter4Ego But they lock onto our social systems and never find work. Would that work in America?
