And yet you still insist on stating them as facts as if they were. If you want to believe these things, more power to you, but if you are going to try to pass them off as more than that I can’t agree.

The connection I have to the universe is environmental. Anything which can be just as easily described as magic is pure speculation. I feel no need to engage in pure speculation as an attempt at fulfillment. That’s why god invented whiskey.
