Interesting theory about state support causing Christianity's decline. I don't know if it's true or not, but anything causing Christianity's (or any other organized religion's) decline is a good thing, in my opinion.
If Christians vigorously persecute other groups for 2000 years, they can't really claim to be surprised when they themselves are then persecuted.
Georgina Schuyler – The mood and behavior around the turn of the 20th century sounds very familiar today. The public being screwed by robber barons convinced to turn on each other to blame.
Shaun the Sheep Sea Slug – The person who succeeds in discovering how to morph those into copies an inch or two wide will become wealthy beyond their wildest dreams.
Indiana Jones is no failure, an ordinary human with no super powers survives fantastic opposition and returns with the most valuable prize... knowledge. He also excels in his primary mission... entertain us.
Religion – While I retain my relationship with God I acquired in my youth, I’ve shunned organized religion in disgust with actions of the leadership, and many of the claimed devout, in all organized religions. From the holier than thou attitude to brazen criminality, I want no part of it.
