America's "God" complex

For my money, your average American isn't very bright when it comes to religion. To them, religion is a real, visceral thing that holds the fate of all human-ape kind in it's invisible hands. Okay, if you want to believe in invisible deities, that's just fine; what do I care? We all have had imaginary friends as children but grown ups shouldn't. Period. If you have an invisible friend who speaks to you or gives you orders to shoot abortion doctors or revolt against the federal government or wish harm on our President, you are psychologically impaired. You need therapy and medication.

What's bugging me about all that is the fact that there are no supernatural beings anywhere. Ever. We humans are simple animals with a still evolving brain. It's only natural our immature (by future standards) lobes would misfire and trick your senses into believing something that was all in your head to start with.
But we let those psychos warp our government and our foreign policy over religious mumbo jumbo. New Testament doomsday scenarios are not a viable basis for American foreign policy. American support for Israel is strictly based upon scripture and simple folk buying into the supernatural nothing. Israel commits war crimes; spies on our government; makes back room deals with China, possibly selling the Chin top secret information the Israelis stole from us; Israel has weapons of mass destruction and a self styled end times PM in Netanyahu who sounds almost giddy about ending the world with war.
If we Americans don't stand up and demand our government get out of myth and start dealing with reality, we are gonna get screwed over big time. Israel is our enemy and is no friend of the United States and she exploits the religious fervor of our whacko fundamentalist Christian citizens and congressmen. Should Israel have such power over us? Hell no! Stand up America and shake off your "God" complex quick. George Bush may have doomed us all but you are allowing them to nail the coffin lid shut on our carcass.
