But over the last few years, after leaving the church and becoming a lot, very skeptical about everything, very atheistic, pretty much anti-religion, and I read skeptical inquiry magazine for a couple years.

And, you know, they just are skeptical about everything.

of bullshit.

And so hearing Anika Harris, it's like, oh, that's kind of weird, kind of out there,

you know, maybe even not worth pursuing because it, I don't even know what she means by

consciousness is fundamental, possibly, because she said that over and over in over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and baby steps.

This is infants on thrones. I'm looking for the further line of knowledge. Father promised to send me.

Babystam.

Babystim.

Baby, baby.

Hey, Glenn.

It's Jared.

Thanks for the response.

I was surprised to get an email back with a 10-minute personal recording, my own little podcast.

Yeah. First off, Jared,

thank you so much for sending this message. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to it.

My morning routine these days is I'll get up pretty early for me at least, like around six,

and take the dog for the walk, Jesse.

And she's swimming in the pool now.

And so I listened to your recording as I was walking and so many things I wanted to respond to it.
