I was watching Voltron in Netflix with my son (and my wife too!) and was already on season 2. In its 2nd episode entitled "the Depths", there's a clip that shows a dialogue between Voltron's Blue Lion pilot and the jellyfish mer-people. The latter abducted the pilot in order to ask for his help to stop their alleged evil Mermaid Queen, because she was believed to be responsible for controlling and brainwashing their mer-men and merwomen's minds.
When the Voltron pilot asked them why weren't they brainwashed by the Queen like the others were, the jellyfish people told the hero that they are jellyfishes, they don't have brains, so you can't brainwash something you don't have.
When I heard it, I said, well, that's a quotable quote if you come to think of it. I can't help but thought of some people I knew in social media (i.e., the Atheists/Agnostics) that say Christianity and the Church were invented to control people. And since they don't buy into the whole Christianity/Church thing; equates to they are not the "controlled" bunch; equates to them being like these Jellyfishes. And we know what these jellyfishes in Voltron just told us who they are.
