Assholes.I think this is as good a way of putting it as I've seen.
I have also come to think that reaching some end point, some point where we learn that final "truth" of everything, would be the most depressing moment for anyone. What do you do when you've learned everything there is to learn, or know everything there is to know? That's when we start to die.
True lol
It's ok to say "I don't know these answers and I don't need to."
Religion tries to fill gaps. Don't know the answer? Turn to religion. Religion I have found, provides no answers to life's toughest questions. If anything, it stands in the way of finding answers. :/
