92. Was it Isaac Asimov or Carl Sagan who said it was the carrot or the stick,

which you should need neither of to be a decent human being? For me, you could stop at the Beatitudes, it is a framework for playing well with others. The rest is a folk history of the people of that particular area of the Middle East, seriously edited and adapted by the powerful to control the many.

Two thousand years of Kings and Popes, and sneaking around to check out scientific explanations for the nature of our existence, and the Age of Enlightenment brought us new ideas. Our Constitution is based on the idea that governance of humans should not be based on Kings and Popes. And now we have a fascist movement that would overthrow our Constitution and take us back to Kings and whatever "faith" that would support their rule of the few over the many. Instead of Constantine we were given Caligula to lead the way.
