this afternoon i went to see buongiorno, notte, the italian movie about the brigate rosse and the moro assassination in 1978. a very touching movie. i walked out all vulnerable…
on the way home in the bus i overheard the following conversation:
woman 1: *sighs* ahhh, i know what i want in life…
woman 2: me too, i want to go to heaven
woman 1: of course, that too, but for now i am down here and have to look that things work out here
woman 2: there is nothing more important than going to heaven, or is there?
woman 1: … ??? … errr sure
whoever came up with that heaven-hell spiel sure had a brilliant plan.
that belief-system keeps people in check. like sheep.
