Reality is subjective. Sometimes unthinking people may say “there is only one paradise and that is Christian” But 69% of humans are not Christians and religious exclusions are neither “Christian” nor sane.
Life is political.

Spirituality is for people who have already been there.”

Junior Wells: I Could Have Had Religion
“…I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own — a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotism.”
― Albert Einstein

“The blessings we bestow upon one another, a nod, wink, hug, touch or a kind word… are more important than prayer and more essential than worship. The rest is commentary, art, science or fiction…”
“I shall tell you a great secret my friend. Do not wait for the last judgement, it takes place every day.”
― Albert Camus

“Everything that the human race has done and thought is concerned with the satisfaction of deeply felt needs and assuagement of pain. One has to keep this constantly in mind if one wishes to understand spiritual movements and their development. Feeling and longing are the motive force behind all human endeavor and human creation, in however exalted a guise the latter may present themselves to us.”
~Albert Einstein…

Grateful Dead – Death Don’t Have No Mercy – Live/Dead
Sometimes fervent and sincere beliefs about truth, lies, science and fiction are tiny guesses about confusion, misapprehension, bias, fear, myths and magic.
“So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours.”
—Chief Tecumseh

HOWLIN’ WOLF – DUST MY BROOM – LIVE 1966
“A leaf fluttered in through the window this morning, as if supported by the rays of the sun, a bird settled on the fire escape, joy in the task of coffee, joy accompanied me as I walked.”
~Anais Nin

“Some people are so afraid they cannot find the courage to debunk the junk and face facts. And increasing numbers don’t want to know truths which may be too terrible to bear.”
