When Did the World Get So Silly

I will change the world the Bible thumper says. He grabs his big book and prays for guidance. I doubt that, says the scientific thinker. You are too Biblical. I shall inform you, the president says. President of what? Who voted for him? No one knows, and no one listens. The child stares, wondering what is happening. When did the world get so silly?

I grew up with the Bible, but Bible Thumpers really annoy me, Caren. Right now, I'm not such a fan of Christian Nationalism either. I do not want America to be straitlaced, self-righteous, bigoted nation!
