I’m watching Apocalypse in the Tropics documentary on Netflix about evangelicals and politics in Brazil and it’s mind boggling. Why do the religious people just blindly do whatever the pastors tell them?

    People are stupid. They can be made to believe any lie because either they want to believe it’s true or because they are afraid it’s true.

    -Terry Goodkind, “Wizard’s First Rule”

    Hate to break it to you, it’s not just religious people.
