One of my acquaintances was asked in a gathering, "Why you don't pray
and call the almighty creator?", insinuating that he is a non-believer.
He quipped "He is me, why would I call him?" Boy, did that raise some
brows! The people were stunned and felt their religious view was
desecrated. They shunned him from then on. This reaction shows anybody
who goes against the herd, in this case jokes about going against the
herd, is automatically ostracized. This knee-jerk reaction doesn't happen
only when it comes to religion, it happens everywhere else in life. All
you have to do is say something that goes against the mainstream. If
you can condition the masses into thinking something is "right", they
think anybody who thinks anything different is crazy. Propaganda does
not only come from the media, it also comes from the very people you
hang out with, friends, family members, coworkers, etc. They force you
to believe what they believe by ridiculing your views. Their closed mind
does not only limit your freedom of expression, it also permeates their
long held beliefs in the psyche of others. And when their thinking is
forced upon others, they don't think they are desecrating the thinking
of the ones that go against the herd.
