This was in a children's book I read long ago, about why Christianity is different from other religions (its founder prowls the night in search of blood, apparently).

To take a line from the movie Pet Cemetery, "Sometimes dead is better..."

It�s the same reason Coke is better then Pepsi, McDonalds is better then Wendy�s, its called advertising or to use the original Christian word, propaganda. The argument is simple I am right therefore everyone else is wrong. Crap like that makes thinking people want to hurl!
