Monogamy and the Church

Man possesses four fundamental instincts:
  • to fuck
  • to procreate
  • to control others
  • to survive
The clergy, however, have often lived a life of self-imposed celibacy -- they intentionally repress the first two of these urges. All of their energies, then, are expended on the latter two. So, unfortunately, at some point in history, they eventually convinced humanity that:
  1. Marriage is a sacred union, ordained by God
  2. Sex outside of marriage is a sin
  3. If you commit a sin, you will go to Hell
  4. The church is God's representative here on Earth
  5. As God's representative, only the church can perform a marriage
  6. God's church must be supported by its parishioners, through tithes and other contributions
This is the greatest fucking scam in the universe.

Well, insurance companies, in the United States at least, are heavily regulated by the state and accountable to their shareholders. The policies they issue are a legal contract that binds both parties in equal consideration. In the event of a loss, insurance companies pay up or they go out of business.

The church, on the other hand, is not held to quite the same standards. In consideration for their contributions, what does the church offer parishioners?

A place to go and something to do on Sunday mornings? I'd rather sleep in.

The promise of salvation? Ha! Tell me another joke.

Hatred and bigotry for those they call sinners? Well... I guess we've got that in spades.
