The Blissful Idiot

Man cannot live on ideals alone. He needs substance; a physical reality with which he may interact. Do you believe that God can fill the empty belly? Well then, what answer would you dare to put forth in explaining to the millions of starving children in the world why God puts no nourishment in their bellies. Could you tell them, to their inoccent faces--full of fear and suffering, that they worship the wrong God, or simply don't pray in quite the right manner? If so, then you are a bastard worthy of the cross.

Man needs physical nouishment as well as spiritual. To this end he pushes God aside and becomes, for a time, a purely animalistic being; he is ignorant of his own ideals of right and wrong. He is like Adam before partaking of the fruit; he lives in a perfact state of naturalism. He is a blissful idiot.
