Absolutely, but it would help to have a candidate this time who can effectively channel that anger. The article mentions that "...one factor that led to Trump’s defeat of Hillary Clinton in 2016 was lower turnout in Midwestern cities such as Detroit and Milwaukee." Could that be a logical result of the Democratic candidate arrogantly failing to campaign there?

Is anyone counting????

That's how it's pitched to us in school as well. It's even pitched to us in computer games--in the game *Civilization*, for example, monotheism is a step up from polytheism. But it was always a head-scratcher for me. I remember wondering in 10th-grade social studies class why belief in one domineering and insecure Sky Daddy was somehow more philosophically advanced than belief in multiple squabbling Sky Daddies and Mommies. But growing up in a religious family and area, I had to keep that speculation to myself. BTW, enjoy the Dawkins book--it's a great read!

My wife was diagnosed with liver cancer a month ago.

DharmaBum50 comments on Jan 25, 2020:

I can totally relate because I was in exactly the same position when my wife was dying from bile duct cancer a decade back. We were both religious nonbelievers when we first met, though we tied the knot in a Buddhist wedding in Seoul, where we were both working at the time. And this is how we led our spiritual life, such as it was, for almost twenty years. But she had been raised Catholic, and as the cancer worsened, 2008 or so, she announced one morning that she was returning to the church, and in so doing, was going to start attending mass at the church in our town in Kentucky. Though this was an obviously unwelcome development, I could understand her fear of the unknown and how she was searching for meaning as the end was drawing near. I could also see that she was trying to please her very devout grandmother, whom she adored. Mostly, since she rarely discussed Catholic theology but rather her childhood memories associated with her grandmother and her religious experience in Milwaukee (her birthplace), I could see a kind of psychological regression at play. However, her return to the Catholic fold did not make our end-of-life discussions easier since she was in dismay that we would not see each other again in the afterlife she believed in but I did not. And when she finally died, it only got worse. First off, the local church arranged a funeral mass behind my back because the priest knew I wouldn't consent, and "the good religious folk of Berea" (as the priest put it) "wouldn't put up with" the secular memorial celebration my wife and I had agreed upon for services in this community. And then there was the aftermath with her spiritual-but-not-religious hippie friends who accused me of "not being there for her spiritually." What was I supposed to do--lie?? So yes, Dude, I totally relate and empathize. I'm sorry you have to go through this shit too.
