How many the centuries scientific truths lay chained and condemned in deep dungeon irons by Witch-Doctors who feared the debunking of their “holy” texts?
How many the orphaned hostel boys sworn to dumbness through soul-splitting shame and psychic drubbing stuffed by bible-quoting Witch-Doctors?
How many the virgins and dejected spouses gone to confide and beg for solace stuffed by Witch-Doctors chanting mass and morning prayers?
How many the orphaned virgins sacrificed to temples as dancers for a fee at the mercy of Witch-Doctors’ whims?
How many the billions forced to abandon common sense and reason for fear of the fire and brimstone promised by Witch-Doctors if they did not swallow the dictates of their “holy” texts and hasten to slaughter, sack, soil, slay, sully,suppress, shame, slander, sicken, shun,swindle, slap, swat, slog, sling, spit, split, scuttle, soften, straighten, sink, stink and sell their souls to keep them (Witch-Doctors) in place? 
How many the Witch-Doctors who would anoint themselves as Messiah-Kings in the centuries to come?
How many the Witch-Doctors still to escape from the World in order to find refuge in the Cuckoo’s Nest?
