hell yes! thats the America I love!

oh and think about this for a second. Remember David Koresh? He had hundreds beleiving that he was their god just by using simple techniques and scams. Now...not that I beleive this, but who is to say, that a couple thousand years ago , some guy didnt decide to write a book. He wrote about great warriors and saviors. When he was done with his book he read it aloud. people heard it and took it for the truth. eventually thus "truth" spread throughout nations. The book that this man wrote is now named "The Bible" and people say its the story of their creator. how does this , essentially, differ from the way Mr. Koresh, the sad sick sadistic psycho, brainwashed and fooled the people he led?

remember, humankind is known for its longing for hope and explanation. back in the day science wasnt the same as it is now. people would have been a lot easier to be convinced of a story like this. Especially if it gave any explanation of the biggest questions on the minds of the people.
