God Wants You Dead: Opium für das Volk
Once people accept the external valuation of a Higher Power, they are highly unlikely to go cold turkey. They may however, switch drugs, converting from one Higher Power to another, provided that they do it with intensity. In religion, it is a common observation that converts are always the most observant and faithful.
It is harder to build authentic self-esteem. People who accept the fast and easy esteem of the Higher Power are quickly addicted to it and will seldom go back to the beginning and start over. They feel they would be giving up too much. And not only is there the fear of lost self-esteem, but they also fear members of the old Higher Power becoming their enemies. (Often with cause)

Note: There is a loose association between the “Jesus Does Drugs With You” image and this post, however, the “Jesus Supports Hitler” image is totally out of left field. The idea just struck me as hilarious, the combination of icons conspiring and even working together… but it probably has no place on this post.
I’m leaving the somewhat ridiculous and highly blasphemous material up with this post as a reminder to myself that playing with Photoshop and publishing content after a bottle of wine is a bad idea.
