A very interesting story appeared on NPR a few days back.. They profiled Stephen King ..
I learned some information I never knew about the author, such as how he believes that televangelists and carnival workers are similar *(I agree)* and how he believes in God..
The believing in God portion is getting most of the headlines.
King told NPR:
“I choose to believe it. … I mean, there’s no downside to that. If you say, ‘Well, OK, I don’t believe in God. There’s no evidence of God,’ then you’re missing the stars in the sky and you’re missing the sunrises and sunsets and you’re missing the fact that bees pollinate all these crops and keep us alive and the way that everything seems to work together”
.. King goes on to admit he may have said something different in the past, but chooses now to believe in a creating force of the universe..
King also said something very fascinating about what scares him now: Alzheimers.
He said that’s the boogeyman in the closet now.
