In an earlier post I wrote:
Monotheistic religion is built around fear. There is no other reason to believe that an omnipotent being is tuned into everything you think and do, and, if He doesn’t like what He sees, He’ll happily sentence you to an eternity of torture.
Yet we need to take this in context. In the early, pre-scientific days of the human species, we had people, very much like ourselves, who stood in stark terror of storms, disease, eclipses, and, most certainly, death itself.
We all sympathize with the earliest days of Homo sapiens, yet we’re less sympathetic of today’s radical fundamentalist Muslims and Christians.
As I wrote in the previous post, if we still have an organized society here in 100 years, we will have long since disposed of this stupidity.
For those who struggle with elementary school arithmetic, Trump won the election (50%+ approval) out of more than 150 million votes cast, and now his approval rating is in the low 30s.
That’s ~30 million voters who regret their choices, out of the common American.
Add in the Tucker Carlsons of the world.
Absolutely.
It must be done, because our country is home to some hateful morons who want to see honest, hardworking, taxpaying people with brown skin deported, and their families torn apart.
It wasn’t the American way until recently, but it sure is now.
As shown at left, the United States is loaded with people who twist the facts to their liking.
