* Atheism is not real b/c everyone believes in something; same experience can mean 2 different things based on their own beliefs, blind certainty, no such thing as not worshipping, will eat you alive
* Freedom: not a virtue, freedom of choosing-> we get to decide how we see it, attention, awareness, discipline, freedom of choice
* Education: learning how to exercise control over what you think, teaching how to think isn’t the capacity to think, but the choice of what to think about, how to keep from going through your life dead
* Talks about: boring day-in day-out routine of life, work of choosing, I am the center of the universe (ex: he’s in MY way)
