Who created the universe? What happens after we die? What can we learn from heartbreak? I asked these vague-ish questions, and something interesting happened.

    Nature vs. God

    Nature vs. God

    This episode delves into one of the most unanswerable questions in human history. What’s the reason for all this- life, earth, the milky way- existing?
