“The religious belief in authority aims at the enslavement of the mind. It teaches people that it is moral and good to hand over their time, energy, property, freedom, and self-determination to a ruling class. The enslavement of the mind makes the enslavement of the body unnecessary.
In truth, the belief in "government" is a religion, made up of a set of dogmatic teachings, irrational doctrines which fly in the face of both evidence and logic, and which are methodically memorized and repeated by the faithful. Like other religions, the gospel of "government" describes a superhuman, supernatural entity, above mere mortals, which issues commandments to the peasantry, for whom unquestioning obedience is a moral imperative.”
