I think a better way to phrase it is that Jesus is very anit-exploitation of others.

I'm not sure I'd go so far as to say that Jesus is anti-private ownership of the means of production of goods and service. Capitalism can and has been done without it. Unfortunately people are scum and the free market tends to reward those who are able to successfully exploit others.

Y'know - I think stacking cinder blocks and some pavers on top would actually work just fine. Just angle the cinder blocks so the ones at the bottom have the holes poking out (and into the enclosure) and that should provide enough airflow to keep it from getting too hot in there.

Heck, you could probably angle them all that way except for the top ones. I haven't seen videos of battery fires, but unless they're like really really flammable, the fire shouldn't burn out from around the several inches of concrete that surrounds it.

Remember fire burns up so the pavers and concrete blocks at the top will be what are actually blocking the most.

And then there's those of us who stick 8-foot boards diagonally through their Honda Civics so a couple inches are sticking out the front passenger and rear driver windows.

Coincidentally, by far the most use my dad's pickup truck bed gets is when I borrow it from him to really load up at Home Depot.

The earth was in an ice age around 19,000 - 26,000 years ago - perhaps it started around then when everything was quite a bit cooler.

I'm pretty positive my parents haven't grout sealed their shower since they bought their house, so it's been at least, oh..... 27 years for them?

I mean, not that I recommend going this long, as now as their dutiful and caring adult child I'll likely be the one taking it upon myself to completely regrout the whole thing, but goes to show how long you could go with things probably being mostly okay.
