Have I got this right? This J.C. chappy says “be nice to each other” which upsets some of his muckers so the nail him up. Which is not very nice.
However, they make such a bad job of it that three days later he is up and about. No wonder he legs it out of there, never to be seen again.

You've got to hand it to J.C. No other snake oil salesman has achieved so much to so many for so little."If it floats, flies, or f***s, lease it." - Evel Knievel when he wasn't jumping buses or womenComment

It's interesting to wonder about how much more advanced, both technologically and ethically, we would be as a species if there was no religion.
The church was able to suppress scientific inquiry for several hundred years, until Galileo finally spelt out the geocentric model of the solar system so clearly that the church's position was untenable. Imagine if adoption of scientific methods started occurring just after Greek philosophy had run its course, instead of several hundred years later?
It is known now that man's ethical scruples evolved because they are advantageous in a well-ordered stable society. They are part of innate nature, not an external 'do unto others' command from high up. Yet religion has always lectured that it is the source of morality, and indeed has suppressed innate human morality in order to dictate its own. If we as a species had known all along that ethics and morals are part of our nature, we would have explored and refined them. Instead they are currently warped, thanks to arbitrary aims of religion.
Imagine.. A world devoid of religion, eh?Comment
