A:
Have you ever gone to church, or read through a hymnal or whatever, but mentally replaced all the references to God or Jesus or whatever with "Mein Fuhrer"? It's kind of creepy. It works with "Dear Leader", too, but I think it's not as creepy because we don't have the same background, you know, we're closer to Nazism than Communism in North Korea.
B:
Wow, deep. Are you implying that the kind of hero/God-worship in mainstream churches has echos in Fascism? WHAT?! You have to be the first person to ever think of that.
A:
Look, I know it's not a big revelation or anything, but try it sometime, it is genuinely a little weird.
C:
Are you guys talking about mentally replacing one proper noun with another in a ritualized situation?
A:
I guess?
C:
Try watching Raiders of the Lost Ark sometime, but mentally replace every reference to "the Ark" with "the MacGuffin." It's awesome.
B:
Now that, that is clever.
