For one thing, I don't worship anything or anybody. But I know what's
right because I can feel it. When you reconnect with the feelings that
you've cut yourself off from, you'll find that you've been missing
out on at least half of Reality.

What it is, is that the whole picture is so big that it's impossible
for any human mind to grasp - but you can get a bigger view by letting
go of prejudgement and stuff.

OK, so it's been proved to your satisfaction that God doesn't exist; Do
you suppose it's been proved to God's satisfaction that you don't exist,
either? >;->

Cheers!
