The Dominant Paradigm

I have an affinity for outcasts. Protestant Christianity is not outcast, it is the dominant paradigm. Soul-less corporate secularism is a natural outgrowth of the Protestant paradigm. The Catholic Church began dying in the 16th Century, and died in the 1960's. Now, it is a shadow of it's former self, a ghost, another facet of the neo-Christian regime. And Protestant Corporatism rages on, with it's conservative agenda of world domination-a domination of mind, body, and spirit.
