Disclaimer:The content(crap) below contains unverified claims and totally crazy facts.Any comments opining that I, the writer am crazy, will b ignored since that is quite obvious...:p
I firmly believe that the average sense per capita in this world is decreasing exponentially.Look at the Bushie guy for instance, sittin in Washington and sayin tht Iraq has nuclear weapons of MASS DESTRUCTION ("oooooo").After a few years of intense searching, the only weapon of mass destruction they cud find was a slippery banana peel(o.O)..well, ok mayb a bit more, but tht aint the point! Meanwhile, we have Gilchrist n Ponting causing 'mass destruction' to cricket balls, (everytime they hit the ball, a small mass of the ball is reduced n converted to energy, according to einstein's mass-energy equivalence..or otherwise:|).Anyway, they cause mortal danger to the crowds tht come to see a normal cricket match and mayb enjoy a calm quiet evening!Wonder why the UN aint tracking them....Since the sense-co-efficient of this post seems to be decreasing, im moving onto serious stuff..(ahem!)
Want more evidence??My pleasure....: Chingy the rapper is probably more famous than Led Zeppelin, atleast in the US.Well, ok, cutting out the crap, .....well, I had a dream yesterday, about how a guy was born.(actually it wasnt a dream:|, but to create a sense of magnificence and / OR interest, im lieing that its a dream:|, wen actualy its just a thot)No, I dint see the nativity scene or the birth of Tom Cruise's kid or whatevr...Its a lot more complex.....and senseless as well as baseless:)
*story begins here*
It was a daaaaaaaaark night.The sound of the howling wolf filld the sky...hm... mayb not...
Starting over:)......
It was a normal day.Nothing too special about it.The story takes place in the far away city(far away frm india;nearer to european cities:)):- of Dieunascita, in Europe.The time is not quite clear, but its well before the birth of Ashoka, in Inda..;The King Diopere was in the palace....thinking about the grave situation of his city.The people who were initially instrumental in building the city, which had by now become one of the biggest cities in the known vicinity,.. alas! they have become a mere shadow of their former energetic selves..They were no more inclined to work than to eat smelly snails.They didnt give a damn as to what the king said.Their philosophy of life was to live freely and not care as to their future.They were carefree and the kingdom's economy suffered greatly due to this.Same with the royalty too.When the king asked for a glass of wine, all he got was an earful of whine.So, the King Diopere was sitting in his room thinking about wut to do, wen he was struck by an idea!!
Well, he sortof realised that the only reason they didnt woirk was becuz they dint really fear any1.So, the king decided to instill fear into their minds.But since 'One fears what one does not kno', and since the king knew this!, he decided to build irrational,false fear in the people , for somethign that didnt exist.Since the people dint believe in Diopere's supernatural abilities[:|], he decided to create fear for some one else...U kno, lyk when ur mom says..."Eat ur lunch or the bogeyman or whtevr will attck u!".So, he decided to build a proverbial bogeyman.But some people just dont have fear in them{like the writer of this post:)}So, the king decided to build a creature who rewards as well as punishes, so that evry1 cud be accounted for.He decided to call this creature gott.
gott was all powerful, the know-it-all ; hes ur father as well as ur mother.He knos wen u think about committing pecar(sin).He has no shape.U will never see him.If ur extreeeeeeeeeemely gud thruout ur life, u stand a chance.Of course the king knew that the average man(and woman) commits hundreds of sin a day;so it wasnt risky to say that gott wud appear if a man was sublimely gud.Many people had seen gott.Every1 experiences gott's wrath.But no1 realises it.Get to kno gott;worship him, attain nirvana.......
The king had a few friends who were concerned about the kingdom. Bogoverlagen, Guohoher, Zeuusuhuan, Buhkialo etc. , his closest friends, were told about the gott and how he'd created it. He planned to spread rumours about how the people's miseries are due to gott's punishment for their bad deeds and how the rivers' floods and the farm's famines were due to gott's wrath.
Since it was for the good of their kingdom, the friends agreed.
Needless to say, the plan woirked in due course of time....By a few months,rumours about how the gott's wrath has caused misery for Dieunascita and its people had reached every1s ears.They had a bit of hope atlast...They didnt really have to work..They just had to please gott.So, they began worshipping him.More rumours about how the king was a servant of gott...and his messenger,ensured the *BIRTH OF MONARCHY*.The people started lisnin to what Diopere said and all was well and good.The economy started prospering again...when the king became a bit more greedy....
Since at that time, sex was the primary source of fun for the people, those who dint engage in it were considered as curious(?!)So, the king gathered a group of old guys who were impotent, and asked them to act like leading isolated lives and also asif they were in direct touch with gott.Since this ensured cash for these chaps, and social respect aswell, they agreed.The wud be called 'pretres'. They wud collect cash from the people, give a bit to Diopere and tell the people that the cash ensures gott's blesing.The dumbass people believed!Plus, the birth of pretres ensured that the population of Dieunascita was kept under control as well!
A few generations after, the city slowly declined...as other grand cities popped up.The poeple fled to other places, mainly in search of jobs(and sometimes in search of gott,).But since during its prime, it was one of the biggest cities in terms of population, most of Europe was influenced by the Dieunascitan culture.New generations believed in gott, mainly because kids were taught to worship gott at a young age."Catching them young" certainly works, as it is the best time to influence a person.So, instilling faith into the kids wasnt as difficult as it initially was to convince the Dieunascitan people.And the rest.................is
