Jesus should be put back in the government!

RE: Jesus should be put back in the government!
As noted by H. L. Mencken.

Quote:What is the function that a clergyman performs in the world? Answer: he gets his living by assuring idiots that he can save them from an imaginary hell.


Humans love to hear how "special" they are.

Like I said Min people are self absorbant and vain creatures.
There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition

The need to feel superior to all of the rest of creation is the main reason we need gods. Nothing strokes the ego more than the bible when it states how much god loves us and how we are the apple of his eye etc.

Ever heard of Animism??? Great bear must be respected for he is wiser than any man.

I call a belief in human-like gods "Egoism"... though i am sure that there is a better name for the phenomenon.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
