Thought for a Sunday

“It is heart-breaking to see poor people giving money they cannot
afford to an imaginary God. But they do it week-after-week, and
their belief serves to increase their poverty. And who actually spends
their money? Not God--the priestly parasites of God…”

- Bill Flavell

  1. Good quote from Flavell. The widow's mite and all that. After all, there are a lot more poor people than rich.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
