Don't try and make 'em think, Nectar. It's akin to forcing animals to jump through flaming hoops, albeit more entertaining to watch them fail, and writhe wround clutching their heads in pain.
Basically, the moral is: never proselytise.
'We must respect the other fellow's religion, but only in the sense and to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and his children smart.' H.L. Mencken
'False religion' is the ultimate tautology.
'It is just like man's vanity and impertinence to call an animal dumb because it is dumb to his dull perceptions.' Mark Twain
'I care not much for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it.' Abraham Lincoln
