There’s a punk band down on earth now, called Bad Religion? The problem with that name is that it’s redundant. Religion is purely a mortal invention. I would never have come up with such a godawful idea. Religious leaders like to say that faith brings people together. As you may have noticed, that’s not exactly how it works. Faith brings small groups of people together, typically dominated by a self-anointed individual or hierarchical structure, at whose direction and for whose benefit they can stone, spear, cannonade or otherwise obliterate other small groups of people, whom faith has brought together under someone else’s control.

“I trust you still have it,” said Goodgulf, eyeing Frito.
“Do you mean the Ring?”
“Silence,” commanded Goodgulf in a loud voice. “Speak not of the Great Ring here or anywhere. If Sorhed’s spies discovered that you, Frito Bugger, hailing from the Sty, had the One Ring, all would be lost. And his spies are everywhere. The Nine Black Riders are abroad again, and there are those who claim to have seen the Seven Santinis, the Six Danger Signs, and the entire Trapp family, including the dog. Even the walls have ears,” he said, pointing to two huge lobes which were protruding from behind the mantelpiece.

Hypothetically, if the only choice you’ve got is to do the wrong thing, then it’s not really the wrong thing, is it? It’s more like fate.

Oh freddled gruntbuggly, thy micturations are to me
As plurdled gabbleblotchits on a lurgid bee.
Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes
And hooptiously drangle me with crinkly bindlewurdles,
Or I will rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon
See if I don’t.

There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

We stand on this seashore and wonder
What madness, what secrets we plunder
All failure, we learn from - discovery

I mean that there is no way to disarm any man, except through guilt. Through that which he himself has accepted as guilt. If a man has ever stolen a dime, you can impose on him the punishment intended for a bank robber and he will take it. He’ll bear any form of misery, he’ll feel that he deserves no better. If there’s not enough guilt in the world, we must create it. If we teach a man that it’s evil to look at spring flowers and he believes us and then does it — we’ll be able to do whatever we please with him. He won’t defend himself. He won’t feel he’s worth it. He won’t fight.
But save us from the man who lives up to his own standards. Save us from the man of clean conscience. He’s the man who’ll beat us.
- Dr. Floyd Ferris, Atlas Shrugged, Ayn Rand
