not if all the good people who volunteer to build houses make it in and all the people who buy them up to exploitatively rent out go to hell

edit: god this just reminds me though of how much all the metaphysical stuff ruined Christianity. I've been going through a period of re-engaging with religion and spirituality as an adult and even when I was young debates about heaven and hell and trinitarian vs non trinitarian and nicene vs non nicene seemed really dumb in comparison to the stuff Jesus said about helping people that exist here with us on earth. And now that I'm an adult if I'm going to engage with metaphysics at all I may as well admit that the gnostics have prettier placebos anyway so like. It's all just a way to align your mind and create patterns of behavior that provide comfort through consistency and I can do it with a drab puritan aesthetic or I can have pretty rocks and starry shit and to me there's an obvious winner here.
