Rome wasnt built in a day!
The natives were restless.Don’t be silly. They weren’t after some innocent white settlers like in the movies. Everyone knows that in reality, it was the other way round.They were restless because in spite of their non-stop prayers to god, there was still no sign of rain. The drought was taking a severe toll on the crops and their livelihood.A small group of intellectual young natives finally realised that all this “god” stuff was just a delusion. If it rains, then “god” made it rain. If it doesn’t, then “god” is not pleased. A flawed logic.They needed money to buy food for their families and they now knew exactly who had been squeezing them all these years with a promise of heaven. They sneaked into the temple that night and poked out the solid gold eye of the god idol. As expected, while trying to leave, they were caught by the guards with their state-of-the-art security systems.The culprits were publicly caned on their asses for their crime and for the disrespect of the religion. In short …Their butt for disgrace of gored gold eye.———————–2 dedications …1. Richard Dawkins and his insightful book “The God Delusion”2. During my treks through India and the third world, I saw the poor locals urinating against walls, defecating on the footpaths and in the sea (no joke)and living in filthy shacks that stank to high heaven (obviously no-one noticed it up there). Was I disgusted? Never. I always reminded myself “There, but for the grace of god, go I”
