1. That depends.
What drugs did I take to suddenly make an imaginary being suddenly seem real? :shrug:

5. Funny, the ageof enlightenment came when people
stopped looking to religion for answers. I tend to think that enlightenment and faith are mutually exclusive.

7. Depends. Which god do you mean?
The best think I have ever done is marry my Sweetie. I don't think any of the supposed gods would care at all about that.

8. Wow, how to even begin this.
I don't much believe in a god, so being praised by god is very, very low on my priority list. It's much, much more important to me to do the right things just because they're the right things, and by the right thing, I mean making choices that ultimately will alleviate or end suffering in some respect. I guess I think that just being mindful of others' suffering and acting accordingly would be the most important thing I attempt every day. But praise for living this way doesn't really cross my mind; the carrot/stick thing has never been an incentive for me. :shrug:
