Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming on you. Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. Your gold and silver are cor- roded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. Look! The wages you failed to pay the workers who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter. You have condemned and murdered the innocent one, who was not opposing you.- James 5:1-6

At first I thought this was an angry Tumblr post but then it turned out to be the Literal Bible and it got 1000x better
That’s just desperate wishful thinking. Why wait for some invisible being (that’s also just a product of wishful thinking) to bring justice in the afterlife when we all have perfectly good hands and feet? I’m not content in telling myself bezos will rot in hell with his clothes eaten my moths. I want to bring him to justice and redistribute his wealth now.
Its about using the bible against people who try and use religion to justify/defend billionaires.
It is? How can you tell?
Another one misses the point…
Cryptic comments will surely help people to see your point.
