And of course, Regulus means literally "little > king". Of course, it could be just a coincidence. Isn't "Mammon" Mayor Bloomberg's middle name? Michael Bloomberg "has a mortgage, a family and an extremely demanding job. What he doesn't need is a religion that complicates his life with unreasonable ethical demands. Spiritual providers in the past have required a huge amount of commitment—single-deity clauses, compulsory goodness, and a litany of mystifying mumbo-jumbo. It's no wonder people are switching to Mammon. Mammon isn't the biggest player in the spiritual race. But our ability to deliver on our promises is unique. And our moral flexibility is unmatchable. MAMMON: Because you deserve to enjoy life—guilt free." Huge soft drinks and trans fats included ;-)
