What an amazingly perceptive quote. Religious fanatics think everybody wants to live forever. Not so! There are millions upon millions of sane, rational people who are aware that they will live on average, about 70 years, then die. And that is it! No afterlife, no paradise etc. Religion is nothing but superstition. It has as much relevance as Zodiac signs.

This is such a brilliant quote. Goering was absolutely correct in every word he said. There are few politicians of any party who would dare be so truthfully outspoken these days. It is a great pity that the excesses of the German leadership could not have been moderated in the 1930s/40s, so that an Anglo-German alliance could have been formed which might have led to a better and safer world.
