The 4th of July feels like a sad holiday to me. We celebrate an independence won over two centuries ago, like an out of shape former athlete reminiscing about his glory days on the high school football team.
What we need independence from today isn’t the British — who seem about as threatening as a glass of warm Ovaltine — but from modern tyrannies like big business and, of course, the national security state.
I’d be ok with just the most misogynistic religion losing half its adherents.
I can tolerate most religions even if I disagree with them.
But yea, I am not a fan of religions.
