    The most baffling thing is once subjugated peoples now being the most ardent in their beliefs.

    I never understood the disdain for sun worshipping religions. Seems just as valid as any other.

    That’s actually a great thought. Of all things, worshipping the sun has merit. But you can’t control people with that concept, because you can’t control the sun. People who want to find solitude in the things that actually matter, and are available to anyone, must be converted into sheep. And they literally call themselves that, as their Lord is their shepherd.
