Just because I'm like, you know, I would wonder, you know, very often before I did this reading through the scriptures, like, is God real? Is this all just kind of a man-made joke? You know, honestly, when I got to the end, I just found that there was this ground for peace and faith inside my heart that I didn't even know was possible.

The most wonderful person in the universe who is so mysterious that someone who has a massive intellect, who's someone who's very, very smart, very, very sharp like you are, I mean, you come face to face with things that you just simply cannot comprehend.
