the audacity to think…

I remember back when I was in my religious days we used to always joke about the fact of how ridiculous it was, how audacious, to believe that any church in name your year, name your place, name your language finally figured out theology and/or the answers to the universe. It’s absolutely insane to think “we got it all figured out now but all of those other cultures, perspectives, times, denominations, etc…” didn’t.

And that was crazy.

But in the “secular” world it seems we’ve got a lot of the same thing. This diet, this exercise, this cold shower, this sauna, this lifestyle… we finally have it all figured out.

I’m not saying we don’t know more… but I am saying it’s still audacious to not take most things with a grain of salt in the grand scheme of human intelligence, knowledge, and evolution.

Gotta stay humble.
