Authari Wrote:the whole universe is made of energy, ergo the entire universe is sentient. It took me 10 years to come up with that philosophy but at the end of the day I satisfactorily proved the existence of God to myself who was then an atheist.
This seems like a very primitive worldview--just like when primitive man saw lightning in the sky and thought it was a god.

Oh, ok, I admit it. Just yesterday I was angry at Poseidon in the morning, and then I was angry at Krishna at noon, and then at Thor in the evening.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
