Wow this really is blatant and out in the open. You have to be really dumb to not see how obvious this is (very uneducated, indoctrinated, deeply religious).
This is one of the main purposes of religion. To get slaves to work. The slaves of the time were obviously uneducated, and easily manipulatable with superstitious thinking. Convince them when they die, they’ll go to heaven and live in paradise. As long as you obey, keep working, and don’t fight back.
Its so blatantly obvious, and its right there on FOX news, in the year of our lord 2025. Yowza, the Christians who fall for this are absolutely idiotic, it’s hard not to feel pity, as its really not their fault.
Nah, anyone believing in a loving sky daddy as described by the vast majority of religions in the year 2025 yet can believe this kind of anti-human tripe is absolutely contributing to the problem, willfully and consciously.
Nah, as in, no pity, I assume?
The problem is, many believers (arguable how many, but it could be pretty substantial) could be regarded as legally mentally handicapped. This is generally regarded as an IQ of 70 or below. What about those that have IQs from 70-85? Not legally disabled, but very easy to manipulate by intelligent people and would have a difficult time navigating propaganda.
Are the extremely stupid at fault? I’d say no, the entire blame should be placed on those in power who are manipulating these people for personal gain. It’s truly psychopathic and sadistic.
But no pity whatsoever to someone who is smart enough to understand, but chooses to go along due to cowardice or other reasons.
Ohhhh nononono, I agree that those in power have far MORE blame, but at what point do you call a dangerous idiot caught up in propaganda dangerous?
No matter how you feel about them, they WILL kill you for disobeying. At what point does a useful idiot become an enemy combatant?
People that embrace teachings wholly counter to what they are supposed to believe should bare guilt. They should not be forgiven if they go on to make the world a worse place simply for being an ignorant fool.
They can be forgiven AFTER they change their ways. Until then, they are a brainless tool being actively used by evil people.

But but Golf is work
/s
10 hours on the clock. 1-2 hours commuting both ways. 1/2 hour eating lunch away from home. 2 hours on basic needs. 8 sleeping. 2 with kids and pets.
This ensures that you will be incapable of happiness or enrichment and will spend every rest day frantically trying to do the stuff you couldn’t get done and then vegetating.
Eventually you will burn out if you aren’t 20.
This isn’t an optimal schedule it’s schedulinh a break down
This is being misinterpreted. Back in the bible days they didn’t have to commute and have clean clothes and not smell like shit. When you consider all that as work plus washing and errands on the weekend we’re all working 70 hour weeks. The bible and god himself in all his wisdom and Jesus are telling, no commanding us to work at least 20 hours less a week. Much closer to a 4 or 3 and a half days in the office and the rest is made up of modern life. This is the correct and true interpretation as Christ insisted.
Alternatively Jesus predating all of modern science and medicine had no way to estimate what kind of schedule would be optimal and was just telling people not to work literally every single day.
Dayuuuum
Eh, by 30 you should be dead anyway. A real Christian would live as they did 2025 years ago, with the same life expectancy.

First off, this is a fucking ad. Article author is Mark Gerson who repeatedly references a book titled “God Was Right” written by… Mark Gerson… Set to release next month.
Second, just some of my “favorite” parts:
Contemporary research has shown that we can enjoy and find meaning in any job as long as we frame it correctly. This is called “job crafting.”
Numerous studies have found that there is a productivity ceiling.
The rate of production slowed for the hours 50 to 55.
However, there was no increase in output from hours 56 to 70.
“That extra 14 hours was a waste of time.”
And so, we now have the number of what we have termed the “productivity ceiling”: It’s 55 hours a week.
And here’s the amazing and maybe divine math.
A Sabbath observer can work 10 hours a day for five days a week. He can really only work half a day on the sixth, as he needs to prepare for Shabbat — leaving him with a 55-hour work week.And the “numerous studies” was 2, both using the same data, which was on manual labor from World War I.
He can take his religion and fuck himself in the ass with it.
Guess that answers this question
“job-crafting”
AKA, lets do everything we can to make sure that the people reading this article never hear the term “work/life balance”
God isn’t real lol
That’s a great way to reduce the number of extant ceos
So I get to work from home and also raise my kids on corporate time like in the old farm times
If God wanted his people to work hard he wouldn’t have supported them buying slaves in the Bible
The definition of “work” here is the question. I don’t think spending 55 hours in front of a computer, under fluorescent lights and breathing recycled air, is what the ancients had in mind.
No, the ancients never said anything about working a certain amount of time each week at all. Dude just made up some numbers and said God said it.
Well, to me it’s made-up shit built upon made-up shit by some stupid shit.
Yes, and to a sadly large number of others, that’s “religion”, which they take so seriously they’d happily kill others to defend their makebeliefs.
I thought about posting that here but decided not to because its too far-fetched and absurd ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Where in the bible does it actually say that?
The closest argument that “the Bible argues for a work week” is the first two chapters of Genesis. God created the world in 6 days and rested on the 7th.
… That’s it. That’s the whole reason our work week is the way it is. Jewish tradition really ran with that, and Christianity started as a Jewish sect. And of course for-profit business tried to jam as much work as possible into that framework. You can thank unions for the second day in your weekend.
Everything else here, the “10 hours a day” and whatever else, is all just embellishment, possibly citing other parts of the Bible to make it sound more plausible.
Right next to where it says to attack your trans neighbors to distract from the policy failures of your politicians.
2 Opinions 3:12
and I should care about what the Bible says because …?
What you don’t think you should live your life according to what a lot of Bronze Age goat fuckers said?
How 'bout you stop telling me how to live my life and fuck right off.
A study from a hundred years ago proves that
Godmoney was right all along.Thanks, Fox.
Fucking Fox News.
