Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

And to me, that's just life.

Digital Social Hour

What sustains life is a symbiotic relationship.

Digital Social Hour

Life doesn't happen without symbiosis.

So the very reason why we exist, why this planet is here, is because there are processes that what goes out is ultimately what comes back in.

Yeah.

So the human condition, as I've said, is one of uncertainty.

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

I don't know.

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

I will never know.

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

And I don't care.

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

And I'm OK with that.

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

Yeah, but it had to have come from somewhere.

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

I don't care.

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

That's the you don't care part.

So it's like I said, like read that uncertainty quote from Bertrand Russell.

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

This to me is the most powerful quote.

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

And I think it sums up the human condition.

And I think that once you make your peace with this and really understand that you have religion on one side, you have science on the other, and philosophy is something in the middle that is really about being intellectual and really about being objective.

So it says uncertainty in the presence of vivid hopes and fears is painful, but must be endured if we wish to live without the support of comforting fairy tales.

Digital Social Hour
Bryan Calcott vs Demon Erasers : Do You Need Religion to Be a Good Person? | DSH #1597

Obviously, he's talking about religion.

It is not good either to forget the questions that philosophy asks.
