Let’s be honest: humans can sanctify just about anything. If your irritable, unbearable neighbor became a god (or had always been one), people would worship him without hesitation, declare him infinitely superior, even call him perfect. Since the dawn of civilization, humanity has imagined and crafted images of God—or gods—in its own likeness: flawed, temperamental, lustful, sometimes unjustly lenient. What…

Each small, maddening event raises deep, existential questions: if creation was crafted by a perfect intelligence,…
🤏 Summary : A profound enigma lies in the heart of creation, woven by the seemingly trivial yet relentless presence of small negativities.

Let us imagine, for the sake of this chapter, that everything is just. Believers often claim that God, or the gods, create beings, test them, and judge them according to criteria they alone define. But this raises a fundamental question: by what right? To create beings capable of suffering, place them under pressure, and then judge them harshly for the…
🤏 Summary : In a universe crafted with exquisite precision, the Aetharins lived, beings brought into existence not by choice, but by a mystical creator named Eltis.

His bold inquiries sparked…

There’s something magical, and frankly hysterical, about the idea that a universe half on fire and half in existential crisis is the product of a perfect will. This belief drifts around like an intellectual fart, treated with reverence simply because it’s old. It’s the ancient sleight of hand of the fait accompli: since the world exists, it must be good.…
The accomplished fact of Creation is presented by believers as perfect, simply because it cannot be questioned. This idea, deeply rooted in religious minds, acts like a psychological hypnotizer: it silently neutralizes any attempt at critical reflection on the often dreadful and incomprehensible aspects of reality. Since everything is said to have been created by a supreme deity, it “must…
