            Oooh, now we see the violence inherent in the system!

            edit: I thought this line and this exchange was funny back when I was a religious, white, male teenager in a conservative part of the US. Now that I’ve grown up and seen enough injustice and evidence to become an anti-theist socialist living in a different (but still conservative) part of the US, it hits a little too close to home to be truly funny.
