There is truth. There is rightness. There are things that actually exist. It isn't all subjective. Edmund Husserl, I mean, in Phenomenology, talks about the essence of reality is what you perceive. That's the beginning of the problem. Right there, that's the beginning of the problem.

We believe, you and I believe, I think that you and I would agree that there is an underlying reality and the adventure of life is figuring it out. Yes. And so that I want to align my perception with reality. That's my goal. Yeah, well, I think that's also a good definition of mental health.

That's a... I got lucky. I think I got lucky. My father was a mathematician. And here's the funny thing. There's a lot of social science studies. People ask me all the time, how do I raise my kids in the church? So the most important thing in my life is my Christian faith. The most important thing in my life. That started when I was a kid. How old? Since before I can remember.

Why was it the most important? Because it was just... the central thing in my life. And here's probably the reason. So what we find when people ask, how do I raise my kids in the faith? The answer is have them see the most powerful physical person in their life worshiping. It doesn't matter what you say. You know this about because your dad, your father, like me, it does not matter what you say.

All that matters is what they see. Because that's how they receive information. And there's lots and lots of behavioral science on this, right?

Exactly right. And my father, who is a scientist, he had a PhD in biostatistics. He was a mathematician by background in what he taught as a university professor. He was a proud man. He would have been on his knees in front of no other man. But on Sundays, he was on his knees. And that had a huge impact on the little guy. That had a huge impact on me. So you respected your father.

There was something bigger than my... I mean, I thought my dad was so powerful that he could lift the house. Right, right, right. He was a math professor. He could not. Right. And I saw my father on his knees. And that had this impact. Now, maybe I have the God gene.
