RE: The myth of good governance

Something I found interesting years ago when I was searching religions, Cyrus, despite being a non Jew, was considered the anointed of God. Where this gets interesting is the title Christ means to be anointed. I guess I found that interesting on two levels. One being that the word Christ is not significant to only Jesus, the other being the idea that Jewish people would consider someone non Jewish to be anointed. Sorry I was compelled to mention it, not every day I see someone mentioning Cyrus.

On anarchy, I see many drawbacks. There are some here on Steemit who have exposed me to it more, but they believe it is interchangeable with everything being voluntary. Which in my eyes already is, if one is willing to take upon their shoulders the burden of a thing.

I forgot to mention, salvation means simply "to apply salve".

Thanks for your thoughtful comment. It is interesting that "christ" simply means "anointed one". It's also interesting that re-ligion means to re-bind, re-connect, to tie-together. * Similarly, facism comes from Italian fascio "group, association," literally "bundle," from Latin fasces. *

Anarchy only sounds like a good idea if you are well defended. Those with power like to blame the powerless for their misfortune. POOR = BAD. The gods must favor the rich because they are better than everyone else. This is what anarchy leads to, The Origin of Law
