Interesting.  As if the one weren't the other (and vice versa).
Theater and religion both may be just one big con, a shell game, but the one thing pseudo-priests and
thieves can't steal from me is my belief in their miracle.  They can show me the wires, the whole stage
apparatus, they can laugh at how naive and uncool I am.  But they can't take away my faith in what
happened.  They think they've robbed me blind, but they've actually given me sight.  And I thank them.
