-
Is there really a universal deity?
-
Does such a thing preclude free will or are we humans in control of
our own destiny?
After spending a lot of time falling asleep at the library while
facing the philosophy books, I determined that the concept of destiny
is a construct that allows man a gentle release from facing the terror
of his existence, and that a Hyundai full of twenties would pretty
much offer the same benefits. And so, I ultimately said YES!
