Why must we unpack MYSTERY? Wrap it in Theology? Box it up with piety and on our knees call “Deity!” Can AWE be trademarked, WONDER sold? Does the unknown have to fit a mold? Embrace the pure uncertainty and cherish possibility.

Embracing Mystery
Why must we unpack MYSTERY? Wrap it in Theology? Box it up with piety and on our knees call “Deity!” Can AWE be trademarked, WONDER sold? Does the unknown have to fit a mold? Embrace the pure uncertainty and cherish possibility.
As an Atheist it ticks me off when religious people claim that only they can experience true wonder or awe etc.
