A Religion for the Non Religious

Just thought I'd share something with you that I think you'll appreciate.

First, if you have never heard of the blog called Wait but Why, you need to check it out beyond just the article I'm posting here. Some GREAT stuff on there.

So, this particular article is one that I think you all will enjoy if you have the time and patience to get through the whole thing. It's pretty dang long, but worth the read.

Pretty much everything he says here is stuff I had already thought of, and you probably have too... (and ironically very relevant to my faith, so perhaps we're not so different after all!) ...but the way he illustrates it and lays it all out is pretty awesome! 

Take a look when you have some time, you won't be disappointed, I promise!

Any thoughts?

I'm at work so I only got to skim but I'll read its entirety later. 

Initial thoughts; 

Seems like a self help blog post for people who want to ascend from the mire of shitty/basic human behavior. Personally I found the language just vague enough to make me think of Chopra but I might change my mind when I examine it more closely.
