On Faith and Reason
To all my friends struggling with the limits of their faith, a little reminder:
The nature of God is infinite
The mind of God is infinite
The nature of Man is finite
The mind of Man is finite
The finite cannot contain the infinite
Therefore:
The mind of Man cannot contain the mind of God
Otherwise stated:
“The Tao that can be named is not the true Tao.“

Also, CyberChase features the voice of Gilbert Gottfried. I keep expecting the talking bird to break into “The Aristocrats.”
