I am asking this question, because there does not seem to be a modern logical solution.

I hear a lot of people say that socialism might solve a lot of problems, but I don’t think it has any practicality.

Looking at jobs hiring trends, a lot of businesses are almost stopping their hirings, in favour of investing in automation. Which means 5-10 years down the line, “worker owned” might be closer to fiction.

AI is replacing a lot of jobs now and while the trend that new technologies create jobs, I think that jobs might come after 15-40 years.

Are humanity hopeless?

    Edit: this original part is all about Trinitarianism:

    Hmm, I was sure they were not.

    Could I hassle you for passage numbers (and language and edition) to educate myself on the matter?

    Edit p2.: Matthew and Luke disagree on things like Joseph’s family and whether Jesus was born in or on the way to Bethlehem. As just two of the many discrepancies between the 4 Evangelist gospels.

      2 Corinthians 13:14 ESV

      [14] The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

      Matthew 28:19 ESV

      [19] Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them inthe name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

      Heli was Joseph’s legal father while Jacob was Joseph’s biological father. Heli died childless, so Jacob married his widow and bore Joseph. Thus, different genealogies.

      Matthew 2:1 NRSV

      [1] In the time of King Herod, after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem,

      Luke 2:4-7 NRSV

      [4] Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem, because he was descended from the house and family of David. [5] He went to be registered with Mary, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child. [6] While they were there, the time came for her to deliver her child. [7] And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.

      Both accounts seem to agree that Jesus was born in Bethlehem.

        There are phrases using Trinitarian words, but the doctrine was not established until later, which is why so many early Christians didn’t believe it and it was the Church’s first major schism.

        I’ll take your word on Joseph and legal lineage passing through dead first husbands.

        And thank you for the correction on birth place, I’ve poked about and it seems quite clear.

        I hope and biblical scholarship continues and we get more accurate translated off of ever older texts I, and everyone else, can keep up with where scholarship is at.

          You are right that the Nicene or Athanasius creed wasn’t established in it’s refined form until three hundred years later, defining the Trinity. But Jesus said “In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” with “name” being singular. The Father is indisputably defined as God, and the Son is often shown to also be God. The Holy Spirit is also given equality here so must also be God. The trinitarian doctrine is a logical confusion, as the Bible shows that God is One but also reveals Him in three different persons.
