God and the Placebo Effect

But then people don't generally think about what reality the creator is in. They just sort of stick it on the outside of ours like a pimple, or else have it just floating about everywhere in an abstract, non-existing way indistinguishable from nothing.

Poorly imagined God is poor.

Consider me a satellite forever orbiting,
I knew the rules but the rules did not know me, guaranteed." - Eddie Vedder
