Mr. Mystic:

Compare me to the Nazis? Mmmmmmm. Let's see, the Nazis were mystics, so is organized religion. The catholic church supported the Nazis in Germany (and recently issued a formal apology for doing so). And finally, the Nazis sought to subjugate Men's bodies and will to their purposes, and the leaders of religions seek to subjugate Men's minds and wills to THEIR purposes (in the name of god).

Analyze all that. Who is closer to being a Nazi? Me, who advocates liberty of the body, mind and spirit? Me, who advocates individual rights as the supreme above all else? Or you... the scrabbling little mystic who runs to primitive scrawlings in an old mystical book to justify your cause AND your existence?

Another parallel -- the Nazis thought they were the Master race. Christians believe they are god's chosen (as did the Hebrews) which would make you a Master race.

And another -- the Nazi's were socialist; christianity, if expressed politically, is also socialism.

I think you may want to look in the mirror long and hard before accusing me, a champion of freedom and capitalism, as being a Nazi!! LOL!

Sieg Heil, Mr. Mystic!! Give my regards to Dr. Strangelove.
