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.
One might think that this level of idiocy and incompetence would detract from the appeal of the GOP, but Trump supporters don’t seem to mind.
At left we see the cause of Trump’s imminent demise.
We’re OK on the lies and crimes, but we’re not OK on high prices, and though we’re dumb, we’re not dumb enough to believe that prices were higher under Biden.
Btw, people commonly refer to this as “Obama’s deal,” but several other countries were party to it.
It’s a tragedy that this didn’t happen in 2015 when Trump entered the political scene.
