As someone with Jewish blood, it scares the shit out of me. Us and blacks are usually the first to get scapegoated when America does shit like this

      An actual Anglo-Saxon would also bonk them on the head with an axe, have an affair with his wife, and redistribute his property amongst his battle companions.

      Well yeah, the best way to lose your faith is to read the Bible. I was a scared Catholic who spent most of the time terrified of going to hell, and in High School I thought I'd actually read the book so I knew how to avoid it. Well, I read a few chapters and thought... people believe all of this? And then I got so scared of my doubts that I didn't read it again. The internal struggle that inspired - "If this is the book that my entire faith is based on, and reading it makes me question that faith, then maybe the faith isn't so infallible" - and that's what eventually led me to stop worrying and love the existential terror.
