I never said that it's sad. It's just unsatisfying. To say that it's sad for humans not to know everything is... well... stupid. Humans couldn't possibly know it all. But, we can still dream.

Dream of the things you still don't know.
I like to dream that the fist man to climb the mount everest did it 40,000 years ago; it can't be possible that in four million years of our evolution we were scared of coming out of our fucking caves like most people tend to believe.
I like to dream that the concept of dadaism has happened at least six times throughout history.

I don't make these unbased beliefs dogmatic and a priori. That's the romance of it.

I do... I like dreaming of things I don't know about...
It provides temporary contentment, but... then I drift to the what-if's and why's.
Then I send my mind spinning with trying to comprehend why the hell we're here and why death is inevitable... who - or what - made us, and does fate exist? What happens after death...? What sets our brains in motion and what causes them to stop (besides things like diseases, murders, suicides, etc)? I guess religion provides a safety net for those like me who think about these things too much.
Atheism would drive me nuts.

Then you're not really getting the point of what I'm trying to say.

Exactly. I'm glad this was actually talked out instead of being turned into an insult-fest.

Wait a minute, I'm actually pointing out at a stupid fallacy you made:
How the fuck can you believe that two supposedly all-pervasive entities are only all-pervasive to those that believe it's all-pervasive.
It's stupid!
I don't believe in gravity, look at me float away!!

It's not so stupid when you really think about it...

So far we've thought about it and all we see is problems. Maybe you need to stop believing you're always right and look at what we're saying.

Yeah, sure; gargantuan amount of effort had to be put into this amount of philosophical depth:
"Hey, what if no one can tell me that I'm wrong by telling them that they're wrong and I'm right?"

No, that's not what I'm talking about. And I have thought about it a lot. There is no one religion that's correct... or, if there is, it'll be wrong to say so because people of other religions would be highly offended. And besides, there are so many things that aren't explained. Who's to say that things aren't controlled by our beliefs? There could be one giant divine being out there with many facets, adapting to all religions.... Or, there could be nothing, but SOMETHING must have started this clockwork in motion. I don't care what you say, but you can't tell me what I have and haven't thought about, nor can you tell me HOW MUCH I've thought about it.

So something can't be right because it may offend people?

No, that's not what I said. In any case, it doesn't matter. I highly doubt there is one true religion.

Eh? If something is right, we should keep it a secret so that people don't get upset and are therefore better off not knowing? Stellar thought there, Hitler.

If you want to call your primitive cognitive processes thinking that's your problem.

That's worse than not thinking about it much: it shows just how little you can do with so much effort. Don't say you're smart again.
