What this world needs is more whacko religions ... or maybe less whacko religions, one or the other, but since they're so hard to get rid of, it's probably more practical to just start up another, so let's try that Germans and canadians sharing an interest in forestry, it should be easy enough for us to get going a belief structure centred on the values of keeping land in timber, call it treeist if you wish, and the resulting governments treeocracies .... simple matter to come up with ancient teutonic-iroquois birchbark scrolls for scripture, the beauty of the really old stuff is you can interpret all the archaic terms to suit your needs ..... rewriting the national anthems is no problem, 'O Cana-deutsch, we stand on guard for trees' etc, we could train chimps to do the revisions and get straight on to the preachin', after we've had our Inspired Revelations, and Afghanistan seems far enough away and with a strange enough sounding name for a place to do that, eh .... only thing is, who should we select as our Profit, and should we have him do the walk-on-water thing, or be wind-borne like the maple seeds?
