Inaccurate - travel there. ever see the prevalence of Virgin Marys -
note the lack of diverse worship facilities. Only the Born agains have
made any impact to SA - even the Morons head for Africa and the
Polynesian islands.

You are dead wrong - do you think that just saying what you guess at is
proof of it?

Why don't you quit spin doctoring the pervasive influence of the
planet's largest pyramid scheme? Does the Moron faith have a city/state
guarded by gun toting poseurs? Do the Jews have a hit squad? Do the
Buddhists have a cloistered shrine to imperialized wealth measured in
gold and jewels?

Get a clue - this is the real Mafia - and like any org. they prey on the
weak.
