Okay here's a question. I visited an old hideout (I love libraries...they don't ditch you unlike untrustworthy friends) and borrowed a book called Idiot America : How Stupidity Became A Virtue In The Land Of The Free by Charles P. Pierce.

It is a brilliant read, never came across a book which is able to amalgamate scathing humour and insulting criticism together perfectly in one tight volume. One issue it brought up is the widespread marketing of diluted and stupidified religion that it ends up in cases like Terri's Law and megachurches having political power.

With a local megachurch buying over shares of a convention hall and harvesting blinded minds to boost ranks in the city, is it possible for US to export its stupidity along with its services, brands and information, like the way the Iraq War and Climate reports are edited accordingly and marketed to masses through globalisation?
