Yes, and Monry is the catalyst of the human condition.

Sacrifice children — preferably other people’s children— to Moloch, and all will be well. 🤔

The fact that humans honor a Being they cannot see, obey the commands of a Being they cannot hear, plus imagine that Being as a Male, is beyond belief.

Many humans are taught to believe such things from the time they are born. However, some matriarchal societies do better.

I often argue that “bad men” are the result of “bad” mothers. That’s not completely fair because many mothers are put into terrible positions of despair. In many tribal societies, the members of the tribe intervene to help mothers, especially the young ones, to care for their children. Civil societies can do that, too, and some actually do.

The allegedly wealthiest country on Earth could do that, too, easily. A mere dozen of the wealthiest US billionaires could pay for food, clothing and shelter for all Americans whose annual incomes are less than $50K per year, without experiencing any reduction in their own lifestyles.

A true democracy would demand that. The billionaires fear that and will do whatever is necessary to prevent that. The billionaires succeed with the tacit approval of the ignorant masses who support them.
