The most recent episode of This American Life involves a phone conversation between a deeply religious and a deeply non-religious person. What they talk about covers a lot of the tough, gnawing questions that I also have.
EXCERPT
Ira Glass and his non-religious guest talking about why people die when they do.
IRA: What if it's as simple as, for people who believe in God, God takes people at different times and that doesn't mean that God doesn't have some plan for you?
GUEST: See that makes more sense to me than anything he ever said in our conversation.
IRA: Well that's very sad because I actually don't believe in God.
GUEST: [laughs]
