I believe I could have had a V-8.

I am wide open to new info but what I have seen so far convinces me that gods are emergent psychological phenomena of Homo sapiens, and possibly other species, and whether bestowed by Nature or Nurture or both, aren't going away anytime soon. A scientifically compatible cultural reframing of religion seems wiser to me than any futile eradication attempt.

We are our own gods, so I believe in myself.

Physics indicates that we are participating in creating our own universes/reality.

“Consciousness is fundamental, and matter is derived from consciousness." – Max Planck, theoretical physicist who originated quantum theory, 1918 Nobel Prize in Physics

Quote:

“A fundamental conclusion of the new physics also acknowledges that the observer creates the reality. As observers, we are personally involved with the creation of our own reality. Physicists are being forced to admit that the universe is a “mental” construction.

Pioneering physicist Sir James Jeans wrote: “The stream of knowledge is heading toward a non-mechanical reality; the universe begins to look more like a great thought than like a great machine. Mind no longer appears to be an accidental intruder into the realm of matter, we ought rather hail it as the creator and governor of the realm of matter.

Get over it, and accept the inarguable conclusion. The universe is immaterial-mental and spiritual.” – R.C. Henry, Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University , “The Mental Universe” ; Nature

I believe I'd like a shot of Jamison's but I know if I did, its 12 to 15 weeks of pain & regret. I miss whiskey. (gluten intolerant. A diagnosis for celiacs is $25k out of pocket & I have decent insurance. )

i believe there are no gods. the reason i believe this is because there are no gods!
