On a side note, I love how Jesus would be a democrat (free healthcare for those even with pre-existing conditions, render unto caesar what is caesar's, turn the other cheek, give to charity, etc), but the fundamental idea of religion (a business where you sell nothing, pay no taxes & have most your help working solely on a voluntary basis for no money) is just too republican for the elephants to pass up claiming as their own

I don't know why you didn't think of that either. Seems so many look at him as a god and all.

Yeah. Idiots see gods all over the place.
There are no gods.
But, you're missing the point.
Go figure, eh?

“Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'”

Reality is one big Rorschach test and...well...that's an interesting perception.
The realization that you should enjoy your life and that's it's not just a test to see if you get into some other life later made you want to 'end this'? I hope by 'this' you're not referring to your life. I mean, people talk about social Darwinism in reference to things like welfare all the time. Perhaps religion is the same way - so many people kept alive and functioning by the carrot dangling at the end of the stick. Without that carrot...

Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.
