Electric Monk Edit Meaning

1.

An Electric Monk is a labour-saving device, like a dishwasher or a video recorder. Dishwashers wash tedious dishes for you, thus saving you the bother of washing them yourself, video recorders watch tedious television for you, thus saving you the bother of looking at it yourself; Electric Monks believe things for you, thus saving you what is becoming an increasingly onerous task, that of believing all the things the world expect you to believe.

"Excuse me sir, would you like to hear about the blessings of our lord and savio--"

"Tell it to the electric monk."
