Yes … the weapon in the image is a hallowed item in the religion of violence and weaponry that is the one true religion on this planet.
Man's faith is violence and warfare is stronger than man's faith in God.
In fact, God is usually the first draftee in any war: God is with us: God has the same sight picture as we do.
-----
Violence and Warfare can, miraculously, end violence and warfare.
This is our religion … God help us.

“The fact is that far more crime and child abuse has been committed by zealots in the name of God, Jesus and Mohammed than has ever been committed in the name of Satan. Many people don’t like that statement, but few can argue with it.”
― Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark
