We All Have our Religions

We all have our religions. Some people believe in a God, others in the power and knowledge of Man, his stunted rationality and his crude science as tools that could (they naively believe) change the world. I'll take the side of the religious, though I'm not religious myself, it seems to me theirs is a far less rabid, foam-at-the-mouth sort of approach to life.

But these enlightened liberals fail to see that they too are followers of a religion. Theirs is of course a worship of "rational" deities, and it is as varied a Mt.Olympus as anything the Greeks ever had. Some worship science, some worship things like social justice or things like "human rights." And with the green movement you actually can begin to see the emergence of an actual religion, the worship of Gaia, Mother Earth. So it all depends but you will find that whatever they happen to worship, they are as devoted to it as the most ardent crusaders ever were. Take Canada, that is as bad as it gets, perhaps in Europe it gets worse but I can speak more accurately about Canada. It is a country where quite literally whatever liberties there existed at some point these are now gone, replaced with the worship of abstract causes and ideals. It is rotten to the core.
