Miscellany

I happened to run across a copy of the weekend Wall Street Journal today, which contained an article entitled "When the State Owns the Truth," which appeared to be book review.  What struck me-- which is what compelled me to jot this down-- was a floating quote/commentary stating something along the lines of "communism and fascism, history's two bloodiest political faiths."

But Abrahamic "religions" were the first states to "own the truth," and Christianity was far bloodier than its secular Western offspring. which are but the perfect reflection of the authoritarian religious faith that begat them.
