Father

The father raised his staff, and so he proclaimed himself the leader of the city. Nobody paid him any attention. He shouted louder and louder, proclaiming his throne. Until the local bar owner threw a shoe at him and exclaimed ‘Nobody is going to listen to you old man, you are making my customers uncomfortable!’ And so the father slowly turned to look at the bartender and asked, ‘What is wealth compared to what I offer? I promise eternal paradise, eternal might just for following me and my teachings!’ The bartender, now curious and still slightly annoyed, asked; ‘Really? If I were to follow you WHEN would you give me my promised reward’.

‘Oh, after death of course! Then and only then you will experience eternal happiness, that is if you follow me and my teachings.’ Exclaimed the father, thinking finally someone was listening to him. ‘Right… and how can you prove the existence of this paradise?’ Said the bartender. The father, confused and angered as to why someone would question him, replied; ‘You dare to question me!? Might makes right and I am the mightiest of them all! Which means I am ALWAYS right!’.

‘Calm down old man, now is not the time to argue either way. Go away now or I will call the guards to arrest you. I bet i´ve lost profits already with all of the mindless shouting and blabbering!’ And so the father kept blabbering until the guards came and arrested him. After his release a day later he did the exact same thing.
