We would get kicked out of that home when we become too young. Next we get a gold watch and we go to work. We use the watch as we work for several decades. And then we become young enough to enjoy retirement. We have no responsibilities.
Human beings construct meaning just as spiders make webs.
This is how we survive, our primary evolutionary business. We try to discover the purpose of our lives and to make sense of our experiences. We try to cast meaningful light upon the cloudy recesses of our existence. Believing in God is an intellectual proposition, not too far from believing in gravity. Believing into God is less of a position than it is a journey less a realization than it is a relationship.
