2. It's like that Monty Python sketch, and religion is SPAM.

There doesn't seem to be anything on the American life menu that doesn't contain SPAM. What will we be having today? Eggs and SPAM, or sausage and SPAM? SPAM, SPAM, toast and SPAM, perhaps? We all have three choices of going against the grain. (1) We can demand a meal without SPAM. Or, (2) we can order the thing with the least SPAM, pick around it, surreptitiously wrap the bits in a napkin, and drop it in the trash on the way out. Or, (3) we order, but ask for the spam "on the side." I've done all three, in regard to religion, at one time or another.
