There is a lot of time to read in there and I read it all, Torah, Quran, Talmud, Tao Te Ching. Judaism, Buddhism, Islam, Jainism. Figured if I was looking for God, I should look everywhere. Came out of that an atheist.
Catholic Church in a nutshell. All over the world, these small, starving villages with big, fancy churches. Getting bigger and fancier, while the towns dry up. Churches just popping up like fat, plump little ticks sucking the town dry.
All of it. Every god, every goddess, every religion, every holy war. All of it. Started right up there. Just wondering who the hell could’ve lit those campfires in the sky.
