The Real Religion Is About The Understanding That If We Can Only Still Our Egos For A Few Seconds, We Might Have A Chance Of Experiencing Something That Is Divine In Nature. But In Order To Do That, We Have To Slice Away At Our Egos And Try To Get Them Down To A Manageable Size, And Then Still Work Some Practiced Light Meditation. So Real Religion Is About Reducing Our Egos, Whereas All The Churches Are Interested In Is Egotistical Activities, Like Getting As Many Members And Raising As Much Money And Becoming As Important And High-profile And Influential As Possible.

He Said To Bohr, Accusingly, "niels, You're A Great Scientist. You Can't Believe In Superstitions." Bohr Answered, "i Don't, But Apparently It Works Anyway."as With Confirmation Bias, We Tend To Lean Toward Superstitions That Benefit Us.

Although I Had Good Hand-eye Coordination, I Was So Tall And Skinny And Muscularly Weak That I Just Was Not Well Coordinated. But What I Started To Do Quite Early On Was Watch Some Of The Great Old Silent Comedians, Like Laurel And Hardy And Chaplin, And Then Later On Harold Lloyd And Buster Keaton.
