and also this sad news
Gee, does anybody see the connection here? America is getting left behind in economic, educational and technological progress and SURPRISE! we all still think a magical bearded man in the sky is going to solve our problems. Historians will one day look back on our society and wonder how we could have by and large remained so primitive after progressing so much.
A very long time ago religion was necessary to organize the masses for progress… now it is used to keep us stupid while a very few profit and advance, although I suppose the “very few profit” was always true – but I don’t think society as a whole is getting any benefit at all (unlike in the past).
