Very interesting. but religions tell believers that their religion is the right one and the others wrong or we would just have one religion. Do we want people following that example with literature or art.

I am not sure I agree with his perceived need to find substitutes for the social and community and other beneficial aspects of religion and associate that quest with what is but a narrow epistemological view on a single topic. It has led to silliness like the Sunday Assemblies. But he's still worth a listen, and is thought provoking.

nothing revolutionary … he plays it safe … I was just thinking about some religious dude taking the same approach … perhaps suggesting reading more science magazines
