How do we know, that rather than being alive, this earth is our hell?
And that the reason we have religion, is for us to keep believing that we didnt make it to heaven, and its like a thorn in our thigh stabbing us all the time, for the torture of our living hell?

Seems to me that a potato would be a very simple thing to put into space

"The only thing I know is that I know nothing" - Socrates

Jonah Goldberg
