The entire world is in on it. They know what they have to deal with and so they do whatever they have to do to pretend is it is business as usual. There is nothing usual about any of it but there is an agreement/conspiracy to pretend that all is great because if you upset him there will be he** to pay. So they pray and play along as if it's normal. Reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode where the young boy demanded that everyone think good thoughts. Those who didn't were sent to the "cornfield". Whatever was there was frightening beyond measure so everyone thought "good" thoughts. Woe woe woe. So how's it going for ya? Eveything's real good isn't it? Real good. Sigh.
