Or even better, ones where they decide there's nothing other than matter so we can make our own rules and people in power just murder anyone who might oppose them by the 10s of millions. That evil, evil monotheism. It's the explanation for all the evil humans have ever committed! Before monotheism, all humanity lived in peace and harmony. Come, comrades, let's get rid of it.
