Let us talk about religion, but not in the way you think.

I’m lumping you in with Brewster and Monte.
That’s where.

A better question for all three of you would be “Where did I say I was proving the existence of God”?

I’d never tackle the fool’s errand of claiming to prove or disprove God. Especially when I can tackle the infinitely simpler task of proving that you guys don’t have the knowledge you think you do.

At least you admit it.

I like to set a good example for the kids.
Learn from my humility, scrub.

Why are y'all hatin' on memes now?
...after all, that's how your hair God got elected.

Whatever caused the Big Bang is outside time and space. It's not a thing. It's eternal.

That is a statement without basis in any known facts. You are inserting your suppositions into the lack of facts. Your God could be Asimov's hyperspace supercomputer in "The Last Question".

It is precisely based on known facts.

No nails necessary apparently.

It's from the author of "Eat, Pray, love" on how she believes that genius is an external spirit that comes to us, same as the muse.

She also takes issue with the fact that artists are seen as "doomed" and fights the narrative of the only truth path of artistry is this unhealthy self-destruction that leads ultimately to death, which has been the case for many of our greatest artists. Says this started post-enlightenment when we started seeing the muse as individual rather than spiritual. States that the ancients believed the muse to be a connection with the divine and something to be celebrated, instead of art being something one suffers.

It's a good watch.

What if heaven and hell were the same place?
