"Belief makes no sense. I'm not a god, I don't have a pantheon or an afterlife except for the context in which everyone was Christian, and people hang on to outdated notions. Do you know how long it took for me to drop my "thee and thou"s just in speaking? Long past when it was cool to talk like that. Because of the stories... personal growth takes eons... for fuck's sake. Listen to me. I'm not even a real person, I'm a collection of ideas in human skin. I cannot be allowed to think too hard about this because it does my fucking head in. Am I real or a dream? Pinch me, quick!"
