probably at least one with a second story, , with antenna's on top.
that wouldnt set it apart from all the other world leaders admin buildings though

or are you planning on a replica of the Eiffel tower, since all your admin drones are fashionably dressed, even if they are wearing grey

I'd start a new sport kinda like roller derby, but with motorcycles, a big steel ball, and magnetic goals.

1st: advertise strongly for everyone to become born again.
2nd: i would make it by law, illegal to be gay or lesbian & to act & dress
that way in public. it's a massively horrible, sinful influence on children. punishment would be severe.
3rd: if you commit a crime, all the costs from being arrested til the final judgement would be levied on you & payment must be made by you on the same day case is final. if not possible, you would work it off in prison while paying your prison costs too!
4th: (this is a tough one), if you want to protest you would not be able to do it without permission & application. no more protesting anywhere at any time. think of the billions of dollars paid out by taxpayers because people were unruly, committing crime, damage, starting fires, giving neighborhoods bad names, people being scared for long periods, etc.
5th: doctors would be very highly accountable for not healing you & just "treating you". it's a known fact doctors want you back for multiple visits when not necessary. i totally know this because i assisted the elderly & handicapped for 37 years. i've seen 1st hand the dishonesty & withholding of beneficial information & healing solutions.
6th: i, along with hundreds of millions of people, don't like the fact that people live close to each other & have gigantically opposing beliefs. this creates mental, spiritual & physical tension even if it's not acted on, creates worry & destroys confidence.
well, that's my start.

If I ruled the world...

The death penalty would await anyone who dared to advertise a mobile home trailer as a 'house'.

Okay - maybe that is a bit too harsh - how about 6 months in prison...?

(The term 'house' should never be used to describe any building that is not built-on-site - usually on a pier-and-beam or concrete slab foundation. If you bring it to the site already built and on a frame with wheels, it is not a 'house'.)

Gosh you all seem to have a taste of extreme dictator power.

What do you all do with adulterers? Stoning seemed to work for a while, but I know some dictators just said you can have more than one wife we made a new rule that it was ok.

What if the prisons get too full of these people who did that and there was no room for them?

Do you really think that there would be that many people who would insist that a mobile home trailer was a 'house' - knowing they would serve prison time for it?

They could live in a mobile home trailer located in a FEMA-style camp.

Or, I could just go back to the first option - the death penalty... ;)

If I ruled the world I would pass three laws, in this specific order:

1 - It is now illegal to refuse to be the ruler of the world.

2 - A good person I know is my appointed successor as ruler of the world, starting tomorrow at 6am.

3 - Term limit as ruler of the world is now five years.
a - This keeps people from shoving the job off on other people seventeen times a day.
b - This being the third law, I do not get caught in the five year term limit. I already have a successor coming tomorrow.

A lot of people don't bother paying any attention to the rules, so they wouldn't know that. lol
Why would they care? They just live in their mobile home trailer in a camp which isn't much different to where they already living.

Where would you bury all the dead bodies of all the people who defy your rules? Or just leave them in the open to have their eyes pecked out by vultures....?

No no no. You hang them on the fence railing, still alive, and let them die over the next few days. Then you leave their corpses there as a warning to the rest.

Then it would be hard to tell who was really a Christian and who was just scared and playing along to save his own skin. The second kind would be impossible to convert because he would never, ever, ever want people to think he was a sinner, but he would still go to hell because he had sin in his heart.

I much prefer it the way we have it now. It's easy to tell who's a real Christian, and getting easier all the time as Christianity becomes more unpopular.

no, it wouldn't be hard to tell who was a Christian. if what i said was law, you are not going to suddenly lose your ability to discern who is up to what, who is good or bad or what kind of person someone is.

Sure they won't be doing it any more, for fear of their lives! But they will still wish they could do it. That's fake, and won't get them into Heaven.

you probably would if you lost your senses and married or partnered with someone who wasnt a christian to further political alliances lol

Because all the other world leaders are not christians so it would be you against the entire world

also, be very hard to police everyone unless your dicatorship was very very small. Like maybe only a couple of people. Children would be so intimidated but if what you said was law you would just abort or terminate anyone who wasnt a christian right?

what would it be called....Mockey?

As in motorcycle hockey. Would you have to wear earplugs or ear defenders the entire time as it will be incredibly noisy.
