Terry Pratchett and the Random Fluctuations in the Space-Time Continuum*

Very interesting article on a possibly quasi-religious experience our dear secular humanist recently had ... it also further reinforces my opinion that Mr Pratchett 'gets' religion better than most religious people I've known.

Oh, he's a true secular humanist, seeing religion for the good and bad that it is. What I love about his satire is it's honesty about human nature, and yet he extracts believable optimism from his tales in the endings.

This article confirms a lot you'd suspect about the man from his writings, and it's all reassuring stuff. Crumbs, I wish something could be done for his Alzheimer's.
