44. Follow the money
Edited on Mon Jul-16-07 06:27 PM by ProudDad
All organized religion is about controlling the masses so that they can be fleeced by the upper class...

Whatever particular line of bullshit they use to exercise and maintain that control is irrelevant...

Follow the Money...

In the the U.S. it's some ephemeral BS called "Christianity". They make it up as they go along using a political text written 400 years after the death of their "savior" and re-written as pro-monarch propaganda during the reign of King James of England.

In Iran, it's another fairy tale made up about a man who brutally conquered most of his "country" back in the 600's and his alleged talks with the emissary of some deity he called allah about how people must act...

In Israel it was some guy speaking out of a burning bush, advising them against eating shellfish in the desert (not bad advice), cutting off part of their penises to join his cult, etc.

It's all FOMA as Kurt Vonnegut would say... Foma all of it....

Piss on all religions.
