Quote:Prof, you're a real standup comedian.

No, he's just an idiot.

As always, Mencken nailed the question:

Quote:God is the immemorial refuge of the incompetent, the helpless, the miserable. They find not only sanctuary in His arms, but also a kind of superiority, soothing to their macerated egos: He will set them above their betters.
— H L Mencken
