Just think of all the bloodshed Xtianity is responsible for, then add

warheads.
Frankly I find the idea that humanity somehow needs a divine figurehead to
descend from the clouds, do a few magic tricks called miracles and spew holy
nonsense in order to set the world to right an insult against the human
spirit and an excuse to impose yet another tyranny on a world that has grown
sick of them.
If I thought for one minute that this Maitreya fellow really existed and was
not a creation of the fevered imagination of Benjamin Creme I would fire up
the tepaphone and see how divine he really is.
