Chris Port Blog #275. Solving the problems of religion with an equation...

© Chris Port, June 2011

Any fool can quote from scripture. Any rogue can twist it to any purpose. Any madman can write down the words of God. It strikes me that all of the problems of religion could be solved at the stroke of a pen. If some wise philosopher wrote down the equation "God = Wisdom", this would not provide an answer. It would provide a question. "But what is wisdom?" the thoughtful would ask. "What indeed?" the philosopher might reply. "Answering that question should keep you busy for a lifetime."
