Going beyond God
Historian and former nun Karen Armstrong says the afterlife is a "red herring," hating religion is a pathology and that many Westerners cling to infantile ideas of God.

    >Fourier

    There's a great exchange between two actors in the movie "Metropolitan." Not the exact quote, but:

    "So you're a Fourierist. But how can you be a Fourierist after their experiment failed?"

    "Well I'm not sure you can definitively say it failed. I mean, that it ceased to exist, I'll grant you, but--"

    "See, that's where we disagree. I think that ceasing to exist is a definite indication of failure."
