Feeling Insecure?

We live in an insecure country, with an insecure god, with his/her insecure followers.

The insecure god needs constant affirmation that he's the only, the best and the most powerful god there is, otherwise the insecure followers would run amok and ransack everything that gets in their way.

By their insecurities they learn to suspect things that they don't know, that are foreign to them, without even bother to get the knowledge of the things they deny. They fear most of things, reject most of things, so they only know a little. And they thought, that little amount of knowledge is the absolute truth, because they don't know better. Or they don't want to know better.

That's really OK, if they agree to disagree to others who don't have the same belief. But no, that's not the case. They even completely lost their sense of humor, because laughing as yourself is sacrilege and laughing at their god (or messiah) is punishable by death.

If only we live in a secure country. Who is led by confident leaders. Who truly believe that the people are smart enough to think for themselves. Who give goals, aims, guidances but never strict 'rules' to follow.

If only insecure people aren't afraid of hell and/ or sought after heaven or the virgins they would get from martyrdom.

If only...
