THE ARROGANT AUDACITY OF ANCIENT MAN AND SLOTHFULNESS (LAZINESS) OF MODERN MAN, TO THINK OR BELIEVE THAT IT IS NOT AN ATTEMPT AT ROBBERY OF GOD, TO MAKE HIMSELF (MANKIND) TO BE EQUAL TO GOD as god man.

“The most common of all follies,” wrote H. L. Mencken,” is to believe passionately in the palpably not true. Believing in the palpably not true appears to be one of the chief cultural occupation of mankind.” In culture after culture, throughout the annals of time we find people that believe that the soul lives on after death, that mystical religious rituals rather than scientific religious reality can change the physical world and divine the truth from the spiritual world. And that illness and misfortune are caused by and can be alleviated by spirits, ghosts, saints, fairies, angels, demons, cherubim, devils, and gods. According to polls, more than a quarter of today’s Americans believe in witches, almost half believe in ghosts, half believe in the devil, half believe that the book of Genesis is literally true. Sixty-nine percent believe in angels, eighty-seven percent believe that Jesus was a living breathing human being raised from the dead. And ninety-six percent believe in a God or universal spirit that is human, part human or has human emotional or psychological qualities. The United States the country with the highest degree of physical comforts in the world now has the highest degree of mental instability of any country in the world.
