Basically I believe that any stories that people have made up about God/gods are just myth. I think that there could be more to our existence that the years that we have in our lives, but if that is the case there is no possible way to know what it is. The more I've been exposed to religion the less reason I see to think there is anything to it. I don't really like to argue the point, just because it seems to cause more pain than understanding, but that might just be my experience.

I'm not a fan of the "why is there evil in the world?" argument against the existence of God. I just don't see any reason to think there is a God in the first place, so making the leap to trying to understand the motivations of God is too much for me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Also, you're milky.

Mmm. Milky.

Huh. I thought I was over that. Guess not!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Help me, please: Is a pinstriped pants suit Too Much for an interview for an internship? I'm meeting with the executive director.

What kind of fabric, Jesse?

Also, what kind of organization?

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'm agnostic about god. Can't prove any of it.

I do believe that both what we call "evil" and "divine inspiration" are probably both mental illness. The supernatural explanations are simply somebody's attempt to explain what they don't understand.

I don't believe science is always right or has all the answers...yet. I do believe there is a greater chance of science eventually explaining things, whereas religion is lazy and just stops at "god did it".

What about the pants and a nice top, no jacket, Jesse?

Really? Only reason to watch is the HOTT. At least for me. I'm over Nancy Drew.

Also, what makes the HOTT so HOTT is the wrongness of it all. When Logan was on the boat waiting for her? 10 Shades of sadness.

I think the pants would be funny by themselves. Hmm. The place is a social service organization, but it's attached to a housing development company, so the office is fancy.
