So when God gives birth, what do you think He'll reproduce? gods, of course! When God created Man, He created him in His image and after His likeness.

I hadn't gotten old enough yet to realize that living sends a person not into the future but back into the past, to childhood and before birth, finally, to commune with the dead.
