How naive to believe there might be a single answer to every question. Every mystery. That there exists a lone divine light which rules over all. They say it is a light that brings truth and love. I say it is a light that blinds us - and forces us to stumble about in ignorance.

I long for the day when men will turn away from invisible monsters and once more embrace a rational view of the world.
But these new religions are so convenient, and promise such terrible punishment should one reject them.
I worry that fear shall keep us stuck to what is surely the greatest lie ever told.
