Religion
Those who cannot fend for themselves go down with the ship, captainless and complacent. With an unwavering belief in the titanic they take comfort in short sighted arrogance.
Gods' children are fighting amongst themselves out of mis-comprehension.
The rites and rituals must be carried to the grave, no Christian escape clause, sin as thou wilt and repeat on the death bed 'no'. Suffering must be worked for, earnt in a labour that can only construct. Mortar creaking in arthritic pain. short repetitive tasks over endured sunsets, regular and incessant inoculation against posture and architecture. Gain a little intuitive ground.
God's emissaries are many faces. There is not one message of god. Paganism is monotheism.
