Mine was immediately after: "if you think you know, then all you have done is think that you think that you know". certain ambulatory avians might do well to meditate upon that point. cn

wait one...as i have opined before, religion atttempts to define these highest, undefineable aspirations. They don't own it.

But, this concept is not religious. Religion is a highly organized cult of power. God was invented (or discovered) long before religion.

So, baby and bathwater? Don't pluck the eye to spite the face?
