I'm curious what major part of society people here feel isn't corrupt and dishonest at this point? I'm not confident that I can name any. Politics, government, sports, religion, business... it's all dishonest. A lot of it always has been, maybe all of it.
It's why I observe several communities like this one, of various leanings. It really shines a light on all the deception.
Oh I love to hike. Definitely part of why I do.
Jesus.
I appreciate the religious answers, and not disputing them, but I think it may not be the best idea to accept the way things are in favor of a life after.
I fully agree with that, solmoratlis. For that matter, Jesus' ministry was to a large extent focused on improving THIS world. A good many quotations from Jesus make that point, including those about treatment of children, about where the actual Kingdom of God really is, and of course the two famous verses in John about loving others.
Whatever else you can say about these verses, you can't dispute that the more people who follow Jesus' teachings here, the better THIS WORLD would be.
Matthew: 18:1 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? 18:2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 18:3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. 18:4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 18:5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. 18:6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
Mark: 10:13: And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them. 10:14: But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. 10:15: Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
Luke: 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
John: 13:34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. 13:35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
Yes there really aren't any. It's a blessing though because as Jesus begins to bring things to the light, there will be a place, a purpose for each of us. Plenty of room for each person to step into their passion and shine. Jesus is alive and working. We each can step into the light and he will lead us to take part in the movie, the journey...the Great Awakening!!! 😊❤️

Really, no major one. Even the religious & charitable organizations have been corrupted. There are certainly small isolated groups & individuals that are uncorrupted but that's like finding a needle in a haystack. Considering this, best course is to focus on yourself. Be as good & ethical as you possibly can, be a role model to all those around you so there's at least one uncorruptible person they know.
I've come to understand that satan really is the prince/ruler of this fallen, broken, sinful world. I have always felt like a fish swimming upstream, and I think that's how it will always be. We will always have to fight the good fight to have anything good or honest, because those are the exceptions in this world. That there is anything good at all in this world is because of God's grace.

anything that keeps its focus on Jesus Christ & LORD GOD.
it's funny... the SAME enemies Jesus faced over 2,000 years ago, we are still engaged with today.
the same system, the same lies, everything.
Satan was handed the reigns to rule this place long ago, as he tempted Jesus Christ.
of all things on this planet, the only thing that evil could not conquer & corrupt... was/is JESUS CHRIST
if you approach this life on earth from the view that we are here, because we turned from the LORD, then by default, this place MUST BE CORRUPT.
nothing about the flesh in't corrupt. corruption rules this place, because it must.
Politics, government, sports, religion, business... has always been corrupt. anything that doesn't SEEM corrupt at the moment, will soon be, just give it time. what MAN gets his hands on, becomes dirty.
