There isn't a real divine broadcaster, there isn't a real God; religion is a work of the human imagination. It is a work of art, like a great opera, like a great fiction system. So all this revelation that we've been receiving, all this talk that we've been doing, is us talking to ourselves. But that does not reduce its meaning or value, it's good talk, it's powerful talk, it's meaningful talk, it's us telling ourselves stories, offering ourselves narrative to try and explain the mystery of our own existence.
