      My personal faith involves Alan Watts’ thought experiment on God.

      God made heaven, had everything, and it got boring. So God made a new adventure where god is challenged, but they always succeed. But this too became boring.

      So God, with infinite power, imagined a world where they forgot they were god. They didn’t know what would happen next.

      And that is the adventure you and I live in now. Eventually, we’ll get back to heaven / nirvana / reconciliation with God, and then go on another adventure.
