Y'know 'Real in all seriousness, I don't know.



Actually I'm not sure if God exists, and if he/she/it does, what form God is in.



I'm gettin' ta think that the multiple Greek/Roman Gods weren't so far offa the mark, eh?

They all had imperfections, were jealous of each other, plotted against one another, played politics, like in Real Life.



And just like life isn't always fair, people don't seem ta be created equal or born inta equality, that's fer sure!



And I kinda liked the fact that they had a Goddess like Aphrodite that you could fall in love with, eh?

...more Love, a whiff of femininity, a sense of beauty like the above, less War and male-driven bombasticism'd make the world a better place, ifya know what I mean, eh 'Real?

Actually, what was good about the old Greek Religion with its multiple Gods was that there were both Male and Female Gods.



They were always challenging each other, but at least there was a balance.



I kinda don' like the idea that tharz only a 'He' but not a 'She' callin' the shots Up there.



Maybe if they had two Gods, 'stead of One, might be better.



But of course, monotheistic religions such as Christianity and Islam don't allow more than one God, as it is verbotten.

As long as your heart's in the right place I don't think it really matters.

No. not at all.



I was asked to leave Sunday school, for asking to many questions.
I don\'t need to remember what I did yesterday, I only need to remember what I am doing tomorrow. Today, is the here and now.

I'm not really sure what the big guy wants me to do. I sort of play it by ear. Right now I think he wants me to kick ISIS in the nuts. =P

Yes, I'm the same one. Not many know the word philobat [lover of travel], much less are bonkers enough to think of breaking the word down into a personal name.
