MONEY AND POWER IS EVERYTHING


Cut all the mission bullshit. What defines this world is money and power; nothing more, nothing less. History of mankind itself is defined by this constant struggle of power and money. If you do not have money, you do not have power. If you have power, natural consequence is you desire for more money to feed that power. People respond to incentives, so the person who can command the greatest incentive in the form of money or its equivalent controls the people’s responses – the people’s respect. And this cycle continues. This is the harsh reality of the world and there is nothing we can do about it. Every man is for himself. We disguise our desire of influence and power under the cloak of goodness and selflessness. We parade ourselves in churches and charities for people to see how he is living “the good and right life”. This is the system. We could either fight it in vain or join them and have all the things you want in this world. If you can’t beat the enemy, better join them.


This is the standard of the world. Is this what life is all about? a cycle of power and money?


The story of Christ has proved this wrong.
