Boy Howdy, you sure'nuff nailed it to the shit house wall. There came a point in my life when I realized that religion is toxic. Those who spread religion poison the minds of their followers. I like the way Voltaire put it; "Religion started when the first scoundrel met the first fool."

Best screed I've read on the origins, purpose, and nature of religion. Unfortunately we are still (collectively) a bunch of dumb-ass apes with an unhealthy affinity for fairy tales.

I've been crafting a post for Mastodon on this topic for two days, and here you go blowing my wood butcher's attempt at word smithing out of the park. Thank you, I'll just link this, have another coffee, and rant about something else. Unless you have an opinion about the Ambler Road in AK or B.C. mines fouling the fish world, or some other tree-huggery thing.

This is EXCELLENT. I shared it in a FB group with my fellow non-believer veterinarians. And "dumber than a box of otter snot" is now my new favorite insult.
