Education is a service that can be run for profit.
Infrastructure building can be run for profit.
Home building can be run for profit.
Doesn’t mean any of it should.

In your mind there are only monotheistic religions practiced in modern times, and the only other religions practiced in the world involved human sacrifice and those practices are no longer present in modern times?
If you need a fictional character to tell you to act like a decent human being then you’re not a good person.
What happens when you need a real person to tell you to act like a "decent human being" like every human in existence today? Are we all by nature "evil" because we require third parties to dictate what "good" is?
Public services are allowed to operate in the red because the money to operate them, provided by tax revenue, is fixed by the budget and does not need to be paid back. We pay for the service through taxation and if the service requires more money to operate efficiently we should be either increasing taxes to cover the cost or trimming management positions.

I know you think I am trying to be clever, but I don't need to be clever to see through such simple nonsense which you are unwilling to defend.
You can answer the question or you can stop wasting my time. Tanks. :)
The more people who can be exposed to the scientific method to question their beliefs the better. You don't know other people like you think you do and the vast majority have the capacity to listen and learn.
I would imagine that seeing a Unicorn would be quite the experience.
