I think religion along with history is the "propoganda of the victorious". Saddest thing is that the people have far less influence on their government then ever before.

The primary agenda, for the U.S. and a few other top countries, is world hegemony. This is what they DON'T want you to discuss. We don't discuss the concern of shifting of global power, how to control economic upstarts (like China, India, etc.), how to control resources (like oil, land, trade policies and weaponry). Issues such as these are discussed and decided, not by the people, but behind conference room doors, whereas, issues like birth control and religious movements are front page news.

In conclusion, Christians don't scare me as much as the neo-conservative group, Project for the New American Century.
