Does religion interest you?

Gohan comments on Jan 6, 2018:

I see freedom as the ability to choose. If I choose to sit alone in silence, that is indeed freedom. When the loneliness overwhelms ones desire to sit alone in silence, it doesn't cease to be freedom, because it's your mind's choice to enact it's desire.

No religion is higher than humanity.

Gohan comments on Jan 6, 2018:
