"e will establish our religion with the sword. We will trample down our enemies and make it one gore of blood…from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Ocean. I will be to this generation a 2nd Muhammad, whose motto in treating for peace was 'the Al-Qur’an or the sword.’ So shall it be with us"
Joseph Smith (1st prophet of the LDS Church) Nauvoo 1838

@LenHazell53 Crazy! People should be realizing that religion is forced on us.
@MichelleGar1 Often they do, but hide behind the defence that "We are doing it for their own good" only the men in charge (almost always men) actually know it is all a con, but ease their conscience with pockets full of cash.
@LenHazell53 I agree! Control the masses and they're money.
I agree. It's quite embarrassing as a human to be conditioned so easily.
@MrChange That's true but it all started out when our people were forced to believe in their beliefs.
@MichelleGar1 Yep. and the people who forced those beliefs were easily fooled as well. Talk about the greater fool theory. lol
@MrChange True but trace it back far enough and before the biggest fool there is always a greedy bastard with a collection plate and con.
