The privileged status of the believer is one of the key motivations for the belief

b.

“The liberty we prize is not America’s gift to the world, it is God’s gift to humanity.” George W. Bush at the beginning of the current Iraqi war

c.

“*a fundamental belief in human progress animates the thought of the new atheist.”  

d.

a belief in authority is evolutionary because as children, adults or older people,  saved us from danger

e.

“Belief in its typical form, as psychoanalysis allows us to see, is incompatible with a properly politicized subjectivity                                                                    or an authentically engaged existence.”

f.

“Politics involves the realization that no omnipotent force determines the nature of social relations.” 

g.

the religious credo: the great chain: body, mind, spirit/soul

a miltary man

gets off his shift

and goes to the casino

to watch football

a good religion.

On a personal note

i keep a fire burning all day

we would have no trees

i surmise

but will not sit on my finger

 

the clouds have cleared

and Glen Gould plays

the Bach variations

with candor

 

Poll

are predicting social unrest. 

Absurd
