Science may eventually explain the world of How. The ultimate world of Why may remain for contemplation, philosophy, religion.
I appreciate the ‘Surreal Life.’ I had a really positive experience on that show, and with those people. I found some love in my heart for religion again, and had the support of a new family of friends. I wouldn’t have had the pleasure of meeting those people, if we were not all placed in that fishbowl.
I read Christopher McDougall’s book ‘Born to Run.’ If running were a religion, this would be its bible. I actually scribbled my favorite passages on my arm to read during the race.
Well, the first time I ran into the term religion, people were asking whether you had any. You know, some people had religion and some people didn’t have religion.
And I used to think that proof that I had religion was whether I knew how to sing all of the songs.
The engine of ancient society was religion but the engine of contemporary society, as I see it, is advertising.
