This Sunday the Christian message of peace, love, and tolerance was in action again: Israeli police have had to restore order at one of Christianity’s holiest sites after a brawl broke out between monks in Jerusalem’s Old City.

Physical violence erupted as Greek Orthodox and Armenian monks threw punches, kicks, and just about everything else at each other at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the traditional alleged site of Christ’s alleged crucifixion.

It’s always good to see that any religious denomination is staying true to the teachings of their religious iconic leader: It appears in this case that they were trying to get away with thuggish loutish behaviour in their leader’s absence due to his death over 2000 years ago; allegedly at that very spot.

As organised religion continues to lead the masses of subintellectual-fundamentalists from all sides into a cocktail of lies, thuggery, and debauchery, in the name of their respective gods and leaders; we the more enlightened and intellectual individuals of the human race can hopefully remain detached as we watch the numptys exterminate one another, in the hope that they’ll leave the planet in a decent-enough condition for us to go on with our lives once they’ve killed each other in their arguments over who’s god can beat up whoever else’s god.

It’s a shame that this trend in religiously-inspired backward-evolution has reared its ugly head again during our lifetimes; but while there are halfwits, religious factions, and warmongers, then this type of infantile behaviour will continue to sporadically occur from time to time.
