 Just think of all the bloodshed Xtianity is responsible for, then add 
nuclear 
 warheads.
 
 Frankly I find the idea that humanity somehow needs a divine figurehead to 
 descend from the clouds, do a few magic tricks called miracles and spew holy 
 nonsense in order to set the world to right an insult against the human 
 spirit and an excuse to impose yet another tyranny on a world that has grown 
 sick of them.
 
 If I thought for one minute that this Maitreya fellow really existed and was 
 not a creation of the fevered imagination of Benjamin Creme I would fire up 
 the tepaphone and see how divine he really is.
