And I wasted a lot of years being wary of what “people” would think of me were I to suddenly announce that I did not believe *any* of the fairytale stories/myths about a supernatural superhero residing—supposedly, somewhere in an endless Valhalla called “Heaven”. Ah, but it’s the 21st century and the sweet scent of Reason, rational thinking and *Science* could save our planet……..shooting the empty-headed, moronic, self righteous, pompously full-‘of-it GOP presidential candidate couldn’t hurt either, I suppose……Nah, Mittens would just wind up as a martyr and probably be anointed by the Mormon sect as a true martyr. ????
