The Middle East is full of religious extremists who blindly revere evil men.

Oops! I meant *The United States* not The Middle East.

And you know what restrains him now, so that in his time he will be revealed. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. Then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming

of him. There are so many people participating in 'the laying on of hands' that some should have been in front laying a hand on his shoulder or even the top of his head.

Damn "Faith Leaders" are always staging their photo shoots like they're posing for one of those gawd awful McNaughton paintings.

"See how virtuous and reverent they are!"
While the smiling toddler sits in the middle like he's surrounded by grandparents ready to give him birthday cake and ice cream.

Squinty faces, all praying . . . 'Dear Lord, forgive me for following this idiot, but I'm only doing it to fit in and line my pockets!'

As long as they don't ever get nukes, so as to prevent some extremist religious cult leader/con artist from threatening and possibly killing millions on a whim, because of his personal corruption and totally misguided world view, everything should be just fine

Both have so many of the same attributes. Women are second or third class, (depends on what animals they own).
