There are people who contend that politics and superstition should be separated. Certainly, the world would be a better place if superstitious people simply went about their own personal affairs and stopped meddling in the private lives of their neighbors, but that's not going to happen anytime soon. The superstitious are terrified that if they don't terrorize their neighbors, they will suffer for eternity.

Some will argue that the Constitution guarantees the right of people to be superstitious, but that's no reason to appease their superstitions. It is one thing for the superstitious to terrorize their own children and quite a different matter for them to terrorize their neighbors. They even go so far as having their children terrorize the neighbor kids. This kind of conduct is vicious and brutal.

Superstition belongs to Caesar. It enslaves an entire population in a mental prison of fear and ignorance. People who reject superstition cannot ignore the cruelty of the superstitious.

What do you do to shelter your loved ones from the rabid terrorism of superstition?

I was about to comment on this, but then I realized that every time I comment on Tuesdays something bad seems to happen, and I don't want anything bad to happen, so I won't comment at all.

Ironic self-contradiction! The bad shall commence.

It has already begun. All my eyelashes suddenly fell out of my eyes. Which fortunately gave me all sorts of free wishes, so I used one to grow new ones, and now I'm sitting on all kinds of power.

The way you comment...
