Well put. It needs to be said, and I hope your work inspires more people to think about this. The role of religion and the sacred has never gone away. It's only transmuted into different things (for more thoughts on that message me). Human beings are fundamentally creatures of the divine, and taking away the connection to the transcendent will never result in anything good for society. That is what I believe.

Sure Justin, how would you like to know more? If you have a list of questions you can send them over and I'll respond via email/audio. Cheers!

I commend you on writing on a subject that seems to be taboo to most. I was told early in my life that there are three things we don't talk about, religion, politics, and how much money you make.

The first two, religion and politics have become something that it certainly seems best to stay away from. Our society has gotten to the point that we only want to speak our beliefs and never listen to consider other points of view.

Thank you, Carl. I was a bit uncomfortable, but I've only ever made anything halfway decent when I was writing about something I am interested in and care about. Thank you for reading!
