Are you aware that is some places in this world, it is just about impossible to work in the manner that you suggest without joining a labor union? I will remind you again: * Yes, Ellen White spoke against labor unions, as she saw them in her day. * She gives specific reasons as to why she considered them to be bad. * My question is: Would she give the same advice today if none of the reasons she gave for not joining a labor union were true in a specific instance? I say that she would not, at least in some cases. * SDAs have often had problems with labor unions due to Sabbath issues. I mentioned a case where a labor union wa supporting the right of a Sabbath-keeper to have Sabbath free from duty. I believe she would support that labor union.

I agree that God offers reconciliation to every human being (which may be semi-universalism); but there are human beings who probably will - by their own informed free will - refuse to be reconciled. God - out of his great love for these people and His respect for free will, will sadly let them go. He's not gonna drag people kicking and screaming into the Kingdom.
