"What doth it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul"? Whether a soul exists or not is not the point. What is?

I think the point is that the end never justifies the means if the means does harm to anyone. Whatever is gained by that is worthless . It may be a temporal short-term "gain" but in the end? Do the greedy and cruel swap stories about their methods of achieving success? Do they vie for bragging rights? What do they talk about? Truth, justice, kindness, fair play? Or are such things anathema to them and they concentrate on how they got what they got and how to get more of it no matter what it takes?

I expect if you don't have the capacity to think about such abstract concepts you can't be faulted for your limitations.  Right? They don't CHOOSE to be they just ARE.

It's a struggle to figger that one out. People are responsible for their words/deeds. They are accountable. But if it is all they are capable of doing and they have no choice can they be blamed/faulted for being what they are? As I said it's a struggle for me to figger it out. You too? What's your conclusion?

    How can a man who has NEVER shed a tear in his life have any connection to a SOUL?

    This man does not cry.  Did you notice? EVER?

    I just thought of that.  No mention ever in the media  of Trump not crying.  And no mention ever of anyone seeing Donald Trump cry.

    Crying would require caring Sharon and he doesn't give a SH** about anything or anyone but himself. I think his tear ducts are dry as a bone. He is a very strange beast that has risen out of nowhere and taken control with millions cheering him on and supporting him. If that isn't wicked I cannot think of what would be. It is elevating evil and allowing it to run things. I hope it is temporary but I fear it will damage forever what used to be. Now is this all God's Plan? Is this really how God is punishing us for our wicked wicked ways? I do not know but there has to be some reason for it and I do not know what that reason could possibly be. The safeguards in the Constitutions are being ignored/trampled. Those who are supposed to protect us from a tyrant have joined him and protect HIM against us. Something wicked this way comes. It's a puzzlement. Thank you for your reply!  :)
