"Quantum entanglement is a quantum mechanical phenomenon in which the quantum states of two or more objects have to be described with reference to each other, even though the individual objects may be spatially separated. This leads to correlations between observable physical properties of the systems." In a way, history, properly understood, demonstrates that this pretty much defines the relationship of all human beings, past, present, and future. But we don't believe that, because we don't see it.  So we believe instead that we are all connected by proxy, and that proxy is God. And that God blames us for killing his own son, so he could forgive us for eating an apple. And the only way we can ever hope to love each other, is by first loving God, which is why we join religions that teach us that to love that God, we must treat all those who refuse to believe in our sacred version of him, as if they were the devil.  Because by failing to "believe...

Seeing reality for what it really is, is paralyzing.

Peace is the necessary by-product of sharing, caring, and understanding, and war is only ever the result of selfishness, apathy, and ignorance, which is why wars are always waged in the false flags of justice, freedom, and enlightenment, masquerading as religions of science, economics, and divine revelation.  

It is impossible to truly "love" someone, let alone a "God," when it is not only required that you do so by law, but if you don't you'll be tortured forever for failing to do so.  But what kind of God - what kind of father - is so desperate for our "love" - which is a love that is only as failed and fickle as we are (just think of  the rates of divorce and infidelity) - that he makes it a law for us to do so, "with all our heart," and failure to do so will result in no less than eternal fiery tortures? More importantly, however, is the question of why the absolute absurdity of such an idea, upon which the entire edifice of Christian "belief" necessarily rests, causes not a single Christian to reconsider their devotion to such a psychopathic "father, who art in Heaven."   Never mind that, if God is truly as infinite and eternal as Christians claim, and we in contrast are as flawed and imperfect as Christians insis...

I have never understood how people only ever really talk about a “God” in terms that are so clearly human, which is like an ant talking about a human being in terms that are purely insect.

A kneck tie is a noose hanging from a hallowed desk, that people wear with pride.

The person you marry is not just someone who you enjoy talking freely to about anything and everything, and likes talking about those same things just as much as you do, but someone who you enjoy being with the most, when neither of you is saying anything at all.
