Landmines of the Mind: 1500 Original and Impolite Assertions, Surmises, and Questions about Almost Everything

By Manfred Weidhorn

Sample these observations: So many religions out there Religious affiliation is a lottery ticket. The winning ticket, if there is one, will be announced in the hereafter, if it exists. In a single male ejaculation, there are some 100 million sperm cells. Since each cell carries a slightly different genetic makeup and would create a different person, each human being who ever lived won the lottery of life at odds of 100 million to one. And yet people complain of bad luck. In a traditional, theocentric society, the four values of love, marriage, sex, and procreation come as part of a single package.We moderns have unwrapped the package and disassembled the toy. Statements like "I really love you " and "You are beautiful " are entrance fees. The Pill made prudence prudery. Humankind does not deserve itself. If you enjoy these, another 1500 like them await you in LANDMINES OF THE MIND. Sometimes amusing; often shocking; always thought-provoking.
