Losing The Mustered Seed So what if there is no fate? Nothing is meant to be, you make your own destiny as you go! Very scary yet empowering. Lost is a feeling that frequents me, however, I've never been more stable than I am today. I have the power to make things happen, I have the power to change. So if this is truly it, this unpleasant world is all there is, I can change it, for it's not changing itself. What if I am wrong? Nothing is for certain. But even if I were wrong, why am I expected to believe these old stories and live by them, never been given the chance to doubt them. Pascal's wager, and I'm paraphrasing here, stated that the benefit of believing surpass's it's harm. That if you are a believer and it turns out you're right, then you gain all that can be gained, and if you're wrong then you lose nothing, as in what you lose has already been lost. Needless to say Pascal was not a woman. It's very well known how religious societies are prejudice against women, regardless of the religion. So would Pascal's wager still stand if he was a she, sure what you lose has already been lost, but to be a good religious woman rarely would having a #life be compatible with that. Okay enough about women, I'm not one to enjoy writing about the battle of the sexes. What about the universe, can we both believe in creationism and evolution? Is the sun going to fade and turn to a black hole? Can this be the end? Wait the end? I'm getting ahead of myself, how about the start , how old is our universe, how old is our planet? I'm not very well read about the beginning of it all or how far back have civilizations been known. But assuming there was a starting point where earth was created,how did it happen? At this point it's clear I have more reading to do.
