"It seems to me that to organize on the basis of feeding people or righting social injustice and all that is very valuable. But to rally people around the idea of modernism, modernity, or something is simply silly. I mean, I don't know what kind of a cause that is, to be up to date. I think it ultimately leads to fashion and snobbery and I'm against it." Jack Levine: January 3, 1915 – November 8, 2010 LEVEL BILLIONAIRES OUT OF EXISTENCE

Hate Mail
If I'd really wanted to discredit the atheist pricks, I'd have pointed out that the two times the building of Notre Dame de Paris fell into atheist hands they tried to destroy it, during the French Revolution when it was looted of much of its most ancient art (some of which didn't turn up again until the 1970s) was descrated and, at one point as I recall, almost burned down by arsonists, something that was attempted again during that other event held up as a wonderful thing in atheist lore, the Paris Commune. Of course worse than them looting, vandalizing, trying to burn down the building and desecrating it was the murders of clergy and religious and lay people during those trial runs of atheist governance, something that, along with the destruction of churches and cathedrals and art has been a uniform feature of atheist governance every time it was done, possibly the Cuban government the least depraved in that regard.
