| Hi my name is Greg Gianforte and I believe in fairy tales. |
In a 2015 talk at the Montana Bible College, Gianforte said the idea of retirement doesn’t exactly match his religious beliefs.
“There’s nothing in the Bible that talks about retirement. And yet it’s been an accepted concept in our culture today,” he said at the time, according to a report in HuffPost. “Nowhere does it say, ‘Well, he was a good and faithful servant, so he went to the beach.’ It doesn’t say that anywhere.”
“How old was Noah when he built the ark? 600,” he said. “He wasn’t like, cashing Social Security checks, he wasn’t hanging out, he was working. So, I think we have an obligation to work. The role we have in work may change over time, but the concept of retirement is not biblical.”
Oh dear god that I don't believe in, what fresh hell, which I also don't believe in, has Montana subjected itself to?
Noah is a character in a children's tale of morality, NOT an actual person whose life should be taken literally!
I swear the next person who tries to convince me that religion does not destroy rational thinking, I am going to body slam.
