What would you have wanted to ask him?
I wanted to express to him how powerful I found his message, even though I don't even believe in God.
So when I listen to his sermons, I just substitute the word universe for Jesus and for God and treat it more like some kind of new agey thing.
But he seems to really feel what he's saying.
And he preaches this gospel of empowerment.
And at the same time, it's so counter to what many people associate with religion.
He lives in a really fancy house, and I'm sure he has tons and tons of money.
I was just curious to see if I could get him at all to talk like a regular person, which I'm sure I couldn't.
But that was my goal.
I was wondering what it was like to talk to Joel when he wasn't on stage.
I think a regular person, if you substitute the word universe, they'll be like, what are you talking about?
It doesn't make any sense.
But I kind of believe, or at least I have at times in my life believed that somehow the universe seemed to be taking care of me.
I think I don't really believe that anymore, but certainly it's a much easier concept for me to grasp the idea that the universe is taking care of me than that Jesus or some kind of Christian God is looking over me.
You have to have been around New Agey people for a long time.
My mom was New Agey.
My wife, Suzanne, is New Agey.
No, that's not true.
So clearly I'm a rationalist through and through, and I believe more than anything in the power of science.
But I think as a kid, I was willing to listen to my mom's very odd takes on the world.
