So ive been reading The Revenant, and in the Twenty Third chapter, there is a text that made me pause.
[quote]And if Glass believed in a god, surely it resided in this great western expanse. Not a physical presence, but an idea, something beyond man's ability to comprehend, something larger.[/quote]
Ive been an atheist all my life and never really understood the concept of religion. "How could anyone believe in a bearded man living in the clouds judging people?"
Basically the point of my thread is to ask, is this how you see your religion? As an idea? Not as some bearded man? Im curious.
[spoiler]dont mean to piss anyone off, so dont hate me[/spoiler]
Edit: Very, very strange fucķing ending.
