"Through the Looking Glass". That poem, "The Walrus and the Carpenter"
that's an indictment of organized religion. The walrus, with his girth
and his good nature, he obviously represents either Buddha, or... or
with his tusk, the Hindu elephant god, Lord Ganesha. That takes care
of your Eastern religions. Now the carpenter, which is an obvious reference
to Jesus Christ, who was raised a carpenter's son, he represents the
Western religions. Now in the poem, what do they do... what do they do?
They... They dupe all these oysters into following them and then proceed
to shuck and devour the helpless creatures en masse. I don't know
what that says to you, but to me it says that following these faiths
based on mythological figures ensure the destruction of one's inner-being.
Organized religion destroys who we are by inhibiting our actions...
by inhibiting our decisions, out of... out of fear of some... some intangible
parent figure who... who shakes a finger at us from thousands of years
ago and says... and says, "Do it - Do it and I'll spank you."
