"A world where most men prefer sex with little children to sex with
 grown women, mostly allegedly Christian parents secretly engage in bloody
 Satanic rituals and every third person has suffered anal, genital and other
 harassments by demonic dwarfs from outer space makes as much sense - and
 just as little sense - as a world where the universe is ruled by the ghost
 of a crucified Jew and George Bush had rational reasons (which no one can now
 remember) for bombing Iraq again two days before leaving the White House."
