Key to understanding the functions of any religion is the absolutism aspect of their enterprise. No challenge can exist because of the complete imperialism of a presented Supreme Being. Members are locked into a servitude obeisance automatically. A ruler that cannot be doubted on any level. Total submission. All religions tend to grow exponentially into evil bent because of the complete control factor that becomes necessary to uphold that servitude. To take the whole of religion and plot it, and take the whole of fascism and plot it, and then overlay those plots, you will find a near complete match. Fascism makes the same demand for complete compliance that religions do. Absolutism! Only the fascists call their supplanted, substituted God tyrant, dictator, or on the individual tribal corporate level, CEO. It is a rational observation to recognize that a coup to establish fascism and an explosion of unchecked religious fervor for complete control go hand-in-hand. To save this country from both, both must be fought against as one.

Wow Gerald, an excellent exposition I read it and the words Islam, Southern Baptist, Catholicism flashed before my eyes. The worst of the worst.
