What has he ever done for human beings? Doctors and nurses, not God in his 'manifest forms', help the sick; the charitable, whether rich or poor, help the needy; businessmen and scientists help drive economic and scientific progress forward, and teachers in their knowledge and zeal help the ignorant. And so too Lufkin and Hancock actually helped living, breathing human beings! Everyone certainly should be free to put whatever they want on their gravestone or in their mausoleum, but far better to see the representations of those men and women or the represenations of their gifts to mankind in a cemetery than those of a do-nothing who promised millenia ago to come back and lead us to Heaven but who has yet to show His Face or give us one ounce of true knowledge.
