[ExI] work-ethics outside the protesphere, was: RE: ai article

[William Flynn Wallace]

Ja, and what about heathen work ethic?  Don’t those guys have jobs too?
Don’t witch doctors need witch nurses, witch pharmacists and witch
administrators?  You know they would, people who keep the witch doctor’s
office clean and organized, work the appointment schedule, repair the
equipment such as the rattles and nose-bones, that sorta thing.  Heathens
must have a work ethic to keep all that running.  Protestants don’t get a
patent on work ethic.

Religions bigotry is the answer.  Atheists (my preference:  naturalists)
don't have good PR.  We do great things but they are never linked to our
lack of belief.  What are we ashamed of?  An irritating young golfer
interviewed after his first win:  "I'd like to thank Jesus Christ....."  So
religious people get credit for things and we don't.  Suggestions?
