Intellectual superiority comes in many forms, but none so riddled with hubris as the one that fails to see the necessity for irreverence in dealing with hidebound religion, or doubt to test faith.

Far too many people the world over believe in the visual bullshit presented in Catholic Churches.

Most of this represents pivotal moments in time, iconic episodes, caricatures of the person or event being portrayed – and impossible idealised portrayal of smelly humans, who are after all, only the current meeting place where the fallen angel meets the rising ape.

Its almost enough to make you go Muslim.

But to listen to the endless quotes here which are nothing more than some humans’ views about how to conduct or regulate a strand of human behaviour being presented as if they are God’s word – saddo, saddo, saddo.

I do not think that Mircea Eliade would quite go along with this and the Muslims might think twice about letting in the chaotic. I think that you will probably find that Islam is much more detailed and demanding in the observance of its religious code.
