Dive into the intriguing possibility of how Joseph and Mary may have shaped Jesus' life by lying to him telling him he was the chosen one. Explore how his belief in that lie influenced his philosophy, actions, and the historical ripple effects of his existence. Despite living a life centered on this idea, Jesus emerged as a profound thinker with a timeless approach to humanity and life. In this episode, I encourage you to live a life filled with goodness, not because of the fear of hell or to get a reward in heaven. Instead, I advocate for a life of goodness, rooted in the truth that we are all interconnected parts of this universe and of each other
Job 1:6-12
English Standard Version
6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.
1 Corinthians 11:1
New International Version
Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.

Dive into a mind-expanding exploration of spirituality, consciousness, and the very fabric of existence. What if our brains are not just biological machines but finely tuned antennas, receiving and processing information from the infinite vastness of God’s consciousness? As we move through dark matter—God's essence itself—we uncover profound messages and seek to decipher the ultimate meaning of life. In this episode, I challenge the role of ritualistic religion, questioning if it stifles the individual journey to connect with God. Join me as I break free from tradition and embrace a personal, transformative relationship with the divine.
Job 1:6-12
New International Version
6 One day the angels[a] came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan[b] also came with them. 7 The Lord said to Satan, “Where have you come from?”
Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming throughout the earth, going back and forth on it.”
8 Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil.”
9 “Does Job fear God for nothing?” Satan replied. 10 “Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land. 11 But now stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face.”
12 The Lord said to Satan, “Very well, then, everything he has is in your power, but on the man himself do not lay a finger.” Then Satan went out from the presence of the Lord.
John 14:8-9
New International Version
8:Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.”
9: Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

In this thought-provoking episode, I delve into the intriguing concept of the devil as a cosmic scapegoat. Exploring its role in the grand narrative of existence, I ask: Could the devil be an invention of God, designed to sidestep accountability for the world's suffering and evil? And how do humans harness this idea to evade blame for their own destructive actions? Join me as I challenge traditional beliefs and uncover the deeper implications of this ancient duality, redefining the age-old tale of good versus evil.
