It's the believers that give it power. The faith itself is just fiction. I'm not going ridicule an idea. Ideas don't have feelings. It's the people that can feel it. You don't burn a flag alone. Flags don't have nerve endings. You do it in front of someone stupid enough to care. The flag doesn't care.
How do you know? Have you asked one?

Incidentally, a red letter day: I agree with your sentiments above. Not, however, how you choose to apply them. Still, it's interesting that for once we're if not on the same page, at least using the same marker.
