Origin of prejudices

The brain of man is, especially in infancy, like a soft wax, ready to receive all the impressions we wish to make on it; education furnishes nearly all his opinions, at a period when he is incapable of judging for himself. We believe that the ideas, true or false, which at a tender age were forced into our heads, were received from nature at our birth; and this persuasion is one of the greatest sources of our errors. – Jean Meslier (1664-1729)

The Sin Scam

It is the ultimate scam. Think about it: You pay the church to insure you for imaginary crimes against an imaginary being, so that you won’t go to an imaginary hell, as well as insuring you to go to an imaginary heaven. It’s a billion dollar industry established by charlatans and funded entirely by the stupidity of our speices.
