Kindred,
Let's go back to the discussion of subprime mortgages.
Remember when investors thought it was so great with wonderful returns based upon nothing; thought themselves winners in great gains?
Well, it was short lived when the bubble burst and the market crashed.
It is the same when we invest in subprime leaders, ministers and quacks.
Short-term wins in game cheats, lies and abuses only spells long-term bankruptcy, catastrophic failures and forever damnation.
Because it is simply not sustainable to perpetually double down on liabilities and triple down on sins; sooner or later the negatives will spiral out of control, losing all your assets and character and grace.
There is a reason why Jesus Christ stated in his Sermon on the Mount:
"Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God."
- Matthew 5: 5-6, 8-9
