F&L Filosofie & Levensbeschouwing
Een plek om te discussiëren over filosofische vragen, filosofen, religieuze vraagstukken of religie en levensbeschouwing in het algemeen.
God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of his own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players, to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.

Eén van mijn favoriete quotes komt van eigen bodem, namelijk uit een interview van Arjan Visser met Nebahat Albayrak (in het kader van Visser's serie 'De tien geboden'):
"ik geloof niet dat ze (= Albayraks ouders) ooit zullen begrijpen wie ik werkelijk ben. Nee, dat is helemaal niet triest, want ik begrijp wel wie zíj zijn en hoe het komt dat ze me nooit zullen begrijpen. Dat is voldoende.”
