Halloween – Part 1
From a conversation with Christopher Hitchens:
But if religion is a human invention, can’t people reinvent their religion? Don’t people have the power to infuse new meaning into old words?
Yes. I realized on this book tour that I would have to write a different book for every person I met, because they all take religion à la carte.
I mean, sure. No two people see the world in exactly the same way.
This is further proof that it’s manmade. The fact that everyone has now the right to invent their own creed is a point for me rather than a point for them.
