All Comments on 'Waiting For God'

An enjoyable diversion, thanks

It has always been thus: behind every throne there is a "Holy Man" of some sort - priest, shaman, soothsayer, witch doctor...whatever you want to call him, whispering in the king's ear. And the First Rule is: "Never question anything I tell you".

Have you ever noticed that each sect has its own version of "god's will", and each thinks theirs is the only "true word", all the others are wrong...they can't all be right, but they COULD all be WRONG!.

More wars have been fought over religion than were ever fought over territory (although they are pretty close to the same thing, i.e., "If you refuse to believe as I do, I will kill you and take your land...", or some such nonsense.
