"Primitive simpletons believe 'big', oft-repeated lies, not small ones" ~ Adolph Hitler 1925

To expand the Hitler's quote: primitive (of subhuman origin - ape like), simpletons (even apes can learn, simpletons cannot), believe, 'big' lies (Carl Rove/Cheney Big; Irag has wmd), 'frequently repeated' and never small ones (as the simpletons might see right thru them).

Primitive simpletons believe big lies, if repeated frequently.

From the Montana News: Mary Beals on Child Suicide and Heartless Churches

Readers of Hellraisers might remember a story from the Montana News, written by May Beals, about the suicide of a young cotton mill worker who was too worn out from her labors to go on living. The child sought the sure rest of the grave where her slumbers could not be interrupted by the factory whistle blowing at an early hour. That was a fictional story, but, in a letter to the News, Miss Beals claims that suicides among children who labor in the mines and mills are increasing, especially obvious in France where statistics on child suicide are available.

Writes Miss Beals:

Notice that it is "poor children"—the disinherited—who have no share in the earth, who take themselves out of it. Some good people say that the rapid increase in France is due to the spread of free thought—the decay of religion.

If the function of religion is to hold children in a life of torment, that nothing else can force them to endure, the sooner it decays the better. Truly religion is worth more to the masters than either the constable or the hangman if he can keep the children alive while they are being despoiled. Even capitalism cannot grind profits out of a dead child.
