If the Church had the power today like they did in the old days..
scientist, musicians, and artist would be getting their money from the Church.

If the scientist ask the Church for money to go to Mars, they would say they are
going to search for God, not Water. Or a place to build a new church. Spread the Word
of Jesus to aliens on other planets. They would be listening for hymns in outer space.

That is why scientist don't bother to find a cure for the common cold..the
businesses are making too much money selling cough drops. They are not
going to give them money and kill their cash cow.

It is the pharmaceutical companies that decide what to cure and what not to cure.

But since the governments got the power now...they give money to the Albert Einstein's and
tell himm, "Go ahead, build your fuckin bomb, let's kill em' all!"
