It's one of those riddles. You don't see the issue in the photograph because the problem is the photographer.

Proof is the concern of the lesser minds. True believers don't require it. There is a plane of thinking above your dynamics of evidence and so on.

It's so funny to watch your hapless search for proof. You won't find it, you know, you have to look inside yourself to discover the truth. There, you can find something even better. It's called fulfillment.

Well, I went for a walk in Wall-eye park to read my book. I had an e-reader so I could read in the dark of midnight, but unfortunately, there was a rainstorm that made it impossible to use the tablet properly. I just drank my bourbon and walked around the park a bit before I returned home. The police officers that had been staking out my apartment block before I left were still there. I walked past them on purpose to see what they would do. They shined their light on me for a long time for some reason, but I never turned around to let them see my face. Nor did I actually go to my front door to reveal my den to them. I just walked to an alley and turned a corner out of their beam of light. The fools actually put their cruiser in gear and drove around to intercept me, and all I had to do was double back. The most simplistic trick of all, and they fell for it.

I think I'm going to go back outside and continue my stroll. I hope this has been illuminating.

Let me tell you a story.

A man is born blind and black. Through a simple oversight, it is never mentioned to the child what his skin colour is, and after a period of time, everyone simply assumes he must be aware of his colour. Eventually of course, an errant remark will lead to his realization that he's black.

He'll only know he's black when he realizes it consciously, but all those years, his colour was the same whether or not he realized it.

It's the same way with the religion you seek. Whatever faith you are, you've been that way your whole life, and someday, I know, your eyes will finally see the wings on your back just waiting to guide you.

You can read all the books you want to try "force" yourself into a religion. But what you should really be trying to understand is yourself. That's the only way to figure out what religion you are.

I'm a nudist, but I don't go to a nudist colony because my hobby is being naked, not spending my time awkwardly hanging around people in the nude for no reason.

I like books too, but I don't go to book clubs because my hobby is reading, not talking to morons about books.

I'm religious, but I don't go to church. I think you can guess why. What are you really after OP? Humans tend to easily get confused about what they enjoy and what they want to do. Most can't even tolerate eating a meal on their own in public. Are they there to enjoy food? Or simply to show off they have others to eat with?

God did give you religion, most people are just incapable of accessing it. I'm not sure if this is due to genuine inability or mere lack of effort. Reading a book someone wrote or just picking the religion your parents had doesn't make you religious, it just makes you brainwashed.

Real religion comes from channeling spirituality within yourself. The signals are there, just learn how to read them.

True literacy can be achieved only by ignoring the bible.

I'm from whatever country that's supposed to be and I want to write a fantasy novel but the only idea I have so far is that the phrase "elven kiss" would be a colloquial term for a blowjob in this particular fantasy realm. Any ideas where I should go from here?
