Here is an Clint Clark’s interesting website: Religion Detoxification The most noteworthy aspect of Humankind is our amazing ability to use tools to make other tools. The “Religion Detoxification” web guide explores the historical development of Conventional Religion as a “social tool to make other social tools.”
Some religious skeptics tried to stage a play called “CruciFiction” in which the Easter story was shown as a rational event. Christians will be delighted that it seemed to be cursed from the start. Jesus was knocked off his bike and injured by a lorry. His replacement slipped on some ice and was also injured. Judas had to drop out because of his father’s depression. Peter, James and John fell out with the director. Deciding the play was cursed, the cast all quit. The play was recast, but the new Jesus and Mary Magdalene turned out to be not so skeptical that they could accept Jesus as a wino. The director then had a nervous break down and the show had to be cancelled.
