"In general, the art of government consists in taking as much money as possible from one class of citizens to give it to the other. - Voltaire, A Philosophical Dictionary, 1764."
Ahem.......the more things change....you know the rest.

Everything I see about me is sowing the seeds of a revolution that is inevitable, though I shall not have the pleasure of seeing it. The lightning is so close at hand that it will strike at the first chance, and then there will be a pretty uproar. The young are fortunate, for they will see fine things.

The still sweet voice of liberty, crumbles the fortifications of ignorance and tyranny like ripples in a pond. Thanks Psyops!!! And thank your MOM for me! She done good...

"A long dispute means both parties are wrong." - Voltaire.
Like anti-gun and Second Amendment?...
Abortion and Pro-Life?...
The West and Islam?...
Capitalism and Socialism?...
Rocky and Bullwinkle vs. Boris & Natasha...?
Both wrong?...

Just another vitriolic frenchman famous for attacking christianity. His attacks were both frequent and vicious. I suppose today his writings would be styled "higher criticism." His pathetic attempt to destroy the authenticity and reliability of the Bible is laughable. And his stout denials of such things as miracles and the efficacy of prayer only illustrate his ignorance. He once commented:
It took 12 men to originate the Christian religion, but it will take but one to eliminate it. Within fifty years from now the only Bible will be in museums."LOL. How highly he thought of himself! What a joke.
