Montana Republican: Noah Lived To 600, So Retirement Not Necessary
If Noah could live to be 600, why should we worry about retirement reasons Greg Gianforte.
Speaking at the Montana Bible College in February, Gianforte told students, “There’s nothing in the Bible that talks about retirement. And yet it’s been an accepted concept in our culture today. Nowhere does it say, ‘Well, he was a good and faithful servant, so he went to the beach.’ It doesn’t say that anywhere….
“The example I think of is Noah,” Gianforte continued. “How old was Noah when he built the Ark? 600. 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.”

He should have kept going along that thought. After the Flood, Noah got drunk and when his son Ham saw him unclothed, God cursed him, apparently the origin of the Black race. I bet he believes that stuff too. What a moron..

I thought being Black was the mark of Cain. O’Well, it is a stupid idea that Black is used for a mark of anything anyway. They just all Good folks like everyone else.

If any human being ever lived to the ripe old age of 600 I’m a monkeys uncle.

Monkeys are supposed to have preceded humans on the evolutionary chain. Therefore it would be quite difficult to be a Monkey’s Uncle. Now maybe a Monkey’s nephew.

Definition of Savings. Give your hard earned money to someone else so they can play with it while you die early from hard work. Our short time broker told us that if we stayed in the Stock Market for 30 or 40 years we would be very RICH. I told him, that at 65 years old, we would be very, very dead in 30 or 40 years. That brief lesson in stock markets only cost us $15,000.

No where in the bible does it say a person should ride a mechanical bull, yet there he is.

I would enjoy taking this pinhead to a retirement home near here and let him tell everyone they had to leave and go back to work for the rest of their lives….
