Coincidentally read a comment yesterday on the lines of "strange women lying in ponds distributing swords does seem like a decent basis for a system of government at this point".
On a side note, Life of Brian used to be listed on the Apple iTunes Store as rated “PG” - it’s actually “R”. Great fun when I let my 11 and 13 year old boys watch it. Luckily their mother wasn’t home. Appears Apple eventually rectified that issue, but I tried to report it and man does Apple make it difficult.
Absolute masterpiece.
