People like him make me so absolutely sick. He's like Wormtongue, filling people's heads with poison. I don't believe his bullshit sob story for one second.

Nope. And the worst part is that he is well educatef and a good speaker, decent with the English language enough that people buy his shit hook, line and sink her.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

I just realized how ridiculous it is that we're expected to keep acknowledging the fact that we can't know for certain that characters in a story book aren't somehow real. No one expects such a caveat when discussing fucking Harry Potter.

Of course there is the chance of being wrong. But that doesn't mean treating every nonsensical unsupported gibberish claim as worthy of serous consideration is a productive way to live. We only have so much time before we die...

What's so special about this particular bunch of claims? They are popular, that's what. Nothing else.

I'll take comfort in the fact that any particular religion is always just one generation of not indoctrinating children away from dying out. Clearly the religious adherents mostly agree with me there as they don't dare let their kids reach the age of reason before inserting Jesus in their anus. I hope for more people like Kingpin who have the guts to own their beliefs and not teach them as fact to their kids.
