Man has slaughtered humans and animals for aeons of time past -- they still do. Revisionist history plays a huge part in determining what is considered important. The Jewish people lament the 6 million Jews slaughter under Nazi rule -- they never mention the other 5.2 million people slaughtered along side the 6 million. Or the 20 million Jews slaughtered by Stalin in the 20 years prior to WWII. And I think it is important to remember history, not just a single point-of-view.

Hadn’t you known why that volcano didn’t blow..? Now had the natives of Mt Mazama done the same … well, I guess there’d be no Crater Lake..

That level of mass insanity must represent the human bearer between sentient and non sentient behavior… Perhaps it must be excused, or described as the price we paid for having developed awareness..

The thing is, what the religious of modern time are practicing or espousing is dangerously close to that same fear-based primitive ritualistic behavior … with no excuses left..

Religion, religion, religion yet something in my head points at the posibility of illness in ancient times.
