😠 Although... if your productivity this week did *not* include destroying 2nd Century Roman sculpture as a US tourist crying "blasphemy!" at an Israeli museum...
Yeah, go ahead and call this week win for yourself. And thank you for not destroying parts of our collective history!

Another example in a long line of many in religion being a lead factor in mental disease.
@CinnamonGirlE @MLClark Religion is not a mental illness although this person's sense of entitlement might be. Before passing judgement I'd like to know two things: (1) what did the statue look like before the damage and (2) what do archaeologists think its purpose was. Both are conspicuously missing from the article. The Jerusalem Post is not above using yellow journalism to generate ad revenue at the cost of polarization.

Perhaps I stated it wrong. Let me clarify. Religion, per se, isn't an illness. But for sure some people take it into all kinds of delusional thinking. This is simply what I meant.
From my own perspective, organized religion has moved so far from the mark from what it is supposed to be, that people are completely lost. Do I believe that many of the "believers" hold delusional thinking? Yes.
