So Christ would favor using sweatshop labor in an effort to remain competitive? Forced abortions and infanticide too.
Hey, it's all good as long as you deny contraception to your American employees.
No. Where did I say that. re-read what I wrote.
I don't remember the owner of Hobby Lobby or Hobby Lobby itself having a direct line to God or Jesus or any divinity for that matter.
Read what I wrote below.
You are just really, really trying to push forward and agenda, well... no. You're just the puppet. Someone who has been already taken into seeing the world in a certain way, an indoctrinated way, and now you devoted your life to promulgating that view. Which would be fine if it were in any way remotely correct, which it isn't. So there in lies the problem.
You're not alone. There are many, many people like you, hyperpartisan people, on multiple sides of all arguments.
So when I try to explain to you how economics works, ofc, that flies completely over your head and all you do is revert to the original wrong and unbelivably childish argument... which isn't even your own, you just read it in that article which is written by a highschool dropout or it better be... or else shame on the highschool he graduated from... and now you spew the same rhetoric as in the article. No original thought of your own. No meaningful addage. No nothing. You can't react to changing circumstances, to new information that doesn't come from the partisan networks that you watch. In short, your role as a human being in this discussion can be replaced by a copy paste function.
The problem is that a business cannot be "Christian" It is an affliction of human beings. Businesses have a higher calling...the almighty dollar! I hope that is what you are saying.
The only Christian business is the various christian churches and religions that act like businesses. And the only religious businesses are again, religions, all of them, or most of them, who act like businesses.
Everything else is a business. Whatever marketing ploys people employ to get their customers is irrelevant.
How would it help if Hobby Lobby stopped competing in the real world and started being uncompetitive? It'll go out of business. Then who will be happy? You and calamity. Who won't be happy? all the people who lose their jobs.
Also, re-read what I wrote. You don't wanna fall into the last paragraph.
EDIT: I have no stake in hobby lobby in any way. I don't give a damn about it. It can go bankrupt tomorrow for all I care. I am not even defending or arguing for this company. I'm just showcasing the immense hypocrisy and lack of discipline and knowledge in making an argument. This form of dialogue is unsutainable. I pray, not just to one god, but i'd pray to all the gods... even those god awful hindu gods, that this is not the attitude of the majority of people. But it is. And that's unfortunate. This is why there can be no debate on important topics. Because even with the best of efforts, even if you were to treat people like 5 years olds, you cannot get some notions passed some people. It's just impossible. their minds are shut down and they can accept no new information that conflicts... not even conflict, that doesn't fit the mold of their perceived world view 100%. If what you're saying isn't 100% what they think is true, they reject the new information completely, like it never existed. This is not a issue on one side of the political spectrum or the other, both sides have it, but it is more poignant, more... more incestuous on the left. On the right, it's just dumb.
