He should have to pay rent the whole time too.

No, he can't spend all of his income paying down the debt.

He has to pay rent, medical bills, pay for his car and insurance before he can begin to repay his debt.

No, because he'll still need to pay rent, utilities, and taxes. He'll be lucky if he pays off that debt before the heat death of the universe.

Might as well round it up to 4 to account for inflation.

Fun fact: Lucy is dated 3.2 million years ago.

One year = 8,766 hours

Hierarchy!

Man, don't you know? The law ain't made to help earthy cats like us. Here on our planet, back in the old days - back in the real old days - it was just every man for himself, scrooblin' and scrat-scroblin' for the good stuff, the greenest valleys. And the strongest, meanest men got the best stuff. They got the green valleys and were like 'The rest of you, y'all scrats get sand.' And that's when they made the laws, you see? Once the strong guys got it how they liked it, they said 'This is fair now, this is the law.' Once they were winning, they changed the rules up

Not a lot of debate among scholars. There's no other evidence of the "eye of the needle" being used in a way that refers to the small doorway in a larger city gate or any of the other alternative readings. Conversely, there are sewing needles dated to that time and place that are roughly the same as modern sewing needles.

The statement is exactly as radical as it looks at first glance. Rich people can't be right with God, period. All the rest is trying to invent a loophole to let rich people be Christians after Constantine made it widespread in the Roman Empire. First century Christians were almost entirely made of the poor people of the Empire, and would have had no problem at all with the statement as read. The modern reinterpretation is often argued by the exact same people who say you're not supposed to "read between the lines" of the Bible.

And don't get me started on Paul's "the love of money is the root of all evil". Just totally bastardized for the Prosperity Gospel.

The original word means thick string iirc. Still hard, but not quite as ludicrous

I hope you calculated expenses that mere mortals need to spend their money on.

I wish the human brain was built to understand numbers this big... Maybe we wouldn't have let it get to this.

I say tack on another week of wages for every disciplinary action, and if he somehow still magically becomes a perfect employee and completes it with the handicap, fuck it, let him into heaven.

One at a time.

Good point! Correct!
