 Its interesting how anarchism seems to lead back to dictatorship. I'm not disagreeing - I am somehow both an anarchist and a monarchist and a capitalist all simultaneously, and I see no contradiction in any of that. Localism + property rights = micro benevolent dictatorships or techno duchies. 
 I've begun contemplating monarchy a lot since having kids. Good thing at the end of it all Christ is King so just gotta do well by doing well and homie sorted out the tail end already.  
 Hmm. Yes, Christ is king, but I'm not sure that means he comes physically and rules. Maybe. Looking for allegory and symbolism has served me far better than taking the bible literally. 
 I moreso meant we don't have to worry about rulers after Chrit returns.  
 After is now. Time is an illusion. Only the present exists. For me, assuming the logos was making a prediction of future events breaks my cosmology. Maybe. I'm leaving that one mostly open until I understand God better.  
 Brain hurts now. Going back to work. Any recommended reading? 
 Forget reading. Enjoy some sunshine.
