". . .love government too. Remember, Jesus associated with lepers and prostitutes and tax collectors"
People are individuals. Government is a derived bureaucracy riding atop the people. Government is never more than a necessary evil.
This is an important conceptual modeling issue.

My head 'splodes on this one. Have you read the Gospel? Born a peasant, worked as a carpenter, built His church of fishermen from the backwater of Galilee, his cousin John the Baptist decapitated by Herod, runs afoul with Chief Priests (collaborators with the Roman government), totally punts on interacting with Pilate, is crucified by the Romans, and you want to call him a Statist, based upon subsequent events?
Dude: that is The. Troll. Of. The. Decade.
Bravo.

Yeah, the wife's stuff was kind of dramatic.

Your attention is drawn to the second paragraph of the quotation.

To go an unusual route with the Sage's utterance, "Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's," points out that even Jesus wasn't trying to preach the removal of government here under the sun.
Rather, that the Kingdom of Heaven is orthogonal to all the evil that men do.

Yeah, but not by default. I agree that this won't influence most businesses who are still running IE. But old grandma running IE 6 will find that her internet is broken, and will ask someone to fix it for her, which most likely will involve upgrading to an newer browser.

It may also bring back the days of banks requiring the use of IE, as none of the citi group websites support any version of TLS. Of course, those in the know should cancel their citi accounts. Even if you don't use their website, if their security is this lax in one area, it probably isn't great in others as well. Sucks for people with mortgages and such that are very expensive to move to another company, though.

OK, *gonorrhea clap*

I got nothing, and what I appear to have is on loan from Him.

Even if a revolutionary, altruistic vanguard can seize power and not fall prey to Acton's observation, even if: there is still the nasty problem of transfer of power. Bureaucracy happens; lessons not acquired via first-hand struggle are difficult to propagate to the youth.
Consider the secular Jews of the United States, who seem awful asleep at the switch while we brew our own tyranny right at home. [And that oblique comparison is served totally non-partisan, by the way.]
If anybody shouldn't be sucking up to the oligarchs, it's those guys.

This is my point, precisely. We haven't gotten to Marx's ideals yet, but anybody subscribing to Edenic thinking in our post-Eden world is kinda far out.

A moralizing lecture? *golf clap*

Then you refuse to use the products of bourgeois oppression. Perhaps if there was an IWW stamp (in braille).

Has there been some change over recent years that has made phones hard to get out of your pocket?

Yes. They are now FUCKING HUGE. I really miss my RAZR V3.
