The very point of the episode was not a religious concept, it rarely even mentioned. When you look at it, the state is a authoritarian system that represents the soviets under Stalin. Stalin was famous for sending people to there deaths that his party felt to be obsolete. Your are some what correct about the religious placement in that episode. Stalin did ban religion under his reign, it did not vanish though. It was just sent underground and not allowed public discourse. The librarian was a Atheist and the man from the government was a Fascist. When he was reading the bible to him it was more of a attack on the government and there own fear of death. Proving that strength is not in power but lies in the mind of great men. When he ran out the room like a coward and was declared obsolete for being a coward. The entire episode was a metaphor for a weak man vs a supposed powerful man. When the courage was put to the test the weaker one was exposed. I'd like you to ask you a question as well. What character do you relate to. Are you the strong librarian, or are you the Fascist who runs away from a stronger opponent?(February 29, 2016 at 10:10 pm)God of Mr. Hanky Wrote: I don't like your tone, and I don't have to answer your questions. You've been here much too long not to have learned the difference between atheism and the sort of runaway idealism which leads to violent dictators. Kim Jong Ill isn't an atheist, he is a self-declared god, and he knows it.
The last time I checked, Sweden was a very nice place to live, and it is also more of a secular culture than Russia ever was. It has socialized medicine, and so is its education system through college. Denmark, even better these days, no thanks to your god, nor your evil and ignorant socio-economic ideologies. Now the Russian government is a puppet of the Russian Orthodox church, and it's still a miserable shithole for most people who live there.
That's exactly what I'm getting at. When atheist governments declare religion to be banned or at least try to, they want to replace belief in God with worship or belief in the state, because the state becomes god or at least the highest authority. That's why I wanted you to watch the obsolete man.
Seems to be a common theme that when a country goes more towards atheism, they symbolically cannibalize themselves, but when they start allowing more religious freedoms they become more free overall. The time has come to start exposing the absolute savagery that absolute atheism has become. It's responsible for so many deaths in the modern world, usually their own people.
