a MAGICAL liopleurodon [Apr. 1st, 2009|06:15 pm] herrdoctor

I realized today that 'Charlie the Unicorn' is an indictment of organized religion.



The Atheist (Charlie) is hassled by two priests who try to show him Heaven (Candy Mountain) via their holy book (a map).

After much badgering he finally agrees to go look, mostly to shut them up but also to perhaps help them realize that there is no such place.

After a time they come to a guide (a Magical liopleurodon) who talks nonsense which the two priests claim is directions but which is really just random noise.

Finally they come to what they claim is Heaven - much to the astonishment of the atheist. A song is sung and our hero is essentially forced into heaven (converted if you will) where he is knocked out and his kidney is removed.



The clincher is that the priests KNOW that it is fake. They deliberately fool this poor person into a way of life that is detrimental to his well being to better their own lifestyle.



Fuckers.
