It's a state of mind, according to Jesus (Luke 17:21).
It's weird that state of mind includes burning hellfire
Mark 9:43
If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life maimed than to have two hands and to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire
Metaphor, allegory, analogy. Matthew 13:10 otherwise you could end up in prison, dead, or exiled. Oh look, we've come full circle.
Who gets to determine which ones are allegory and which are literal?

Huh, weird translation. Is this Jesus speaking in these verses? Wish it had the red highlighting or whatever.
Also, this just makes it less clear lol. Like... it's kind of total nonsense
Well rich people demonstrably have better mental health as far as happiness than those struggling to pay bills or in even worse situations... So... Kinda' a distinction without a point.
Do POTUS, Musk, Thiel, Yarvin SEEM happy or healthy to you?
Epstein or Max? How about the girls on the island? Go look at photos.
Now consider social media influencers. The little boy that is in the iconic photo hugging the cop.
Now consider what we know beyond the way it looks.
There's persona and personality. They are not the same things.
Can wealthy people be happy and healthy? Maybe, if they're actually good people and never look too deeply at the family wealth, or if they're not too developed, in certain ways.
The only thing Yarvin's bloviating horseshit has convince me of is that high school wasn't a good time for him and he's still mad about.
According to an article I read a while back, he was rejected by leftists and swerved hard right. I'm not exactly sure when that was, but apparently you're on the right track.
Congratulations, you've utterly and completely missed the point about how money creates ample room for happiness. Whereas not having money creates stress and awful situations.
Again, congratulations on completely and utterly missing the point.
AFAIK you're kinda wrong about that. Research suggests that money improves happiness only to a certain point. Once you got the basic meets met it doesn't really matter anymore.
People in poorer countries often live happier lives compared to those in rich ones.
"... to a certain point"
Yes thank you for agreeing that money DOES improve happiness.
Yeah because I'm living a completely lux life. ๐ I'm angry but not bitter or depressed anymore.
Eta: in fact, despite my personal challenges, I'm pretty mentally healthy and decently happy, most of the time. I have my moments but they're not consuming me. I quit playing the victim card and started playing the ~~victim~~ victory hand.
