Philosophy and Religion, shorter articles
I looked for God. I went to a temple, and I didn't find him there. Then I went to a church, and I didn't find him there. And then I went to a mosque, and I didn't find him there. And then finally I looked in my heart, and there he was.

I'm not afraid of death because I don't believe in it. It's just getting out of one car and into another.
~John Lennon
