:54:00
Downstairs you were predicting the end of the world.
:54:02
Now you're talking about the future.
:54:04
How do you explain that, eh?
:54:05
Easy.
:54:07
When it comes, the Apocalypse itself
:54:08
will be part of the process of that leap of evolution.
:54:14
Yeah, well, whatever happens, mankind will not cease to exist.
:54:17
He must. By the very definition of Apocalypse, Mankind must cease to exist,
:54:22
at least in a material form.
:54:24
What d'you mean, in a material form?
:54:25
Well, 'e'll evolve.
:54:27
What into?
:54:28
Into something that transcends matter.
:54:30
Into a species of pure thought. Are you with me?
:54:34
Yeah. Like a ghost.
:54:36
No, not like a fuckin' ghost, you big girl's blouse!
:54:38
Into something that's, like, well beyond our comprehension.
:54:40
Into a universal consciousness,
:54:42
Into God. Who is.
:54:45
By the same principle that time is.
:54:49
You don't believe in God.
:54:50
'Course I believe in God.
:54:55
You see... The thing is, Brian
:54:59
that God is a hateful God.
:55:03
Must be, because if God is good,
:55:06
then why is there evil in the world?
:55:08
Why is there pain and hate and greed and war?
:55:13
It doesn't make sense.
:55:17
But if God is a nasty bastard, then you can say, why is there good in the world?
:55:20
Why is there love and hope and joy?
:55:25
Well, let's face it, good exists
:55:27
in order to be fucked up by evil.
:55:30
The very existence of good enables evil to flourish.
:55:33
Therefore, God is bad.
:55:37
And it doesn't matter how many past or future existences you have,
:55:40
because they're all going to be riddled with grief and anguish
:55:43
and sickness and death.
:55:47
You see Brian, God doesn't love you.
:55:50
God despises you.
:55:53
So there's no hope.
:55:56
Mankind is just a component of the device
:55:58
by which the devil creates itself.
