  1. "When inventing a god, the most
    important thing is to claim it is
    invisible, inaudible and imperceptible
    in every way. Otherwise, people will
    become skeptical when it appears to
    no one, is silent and does nothing.”
    ~Anonymous

  2. "Lightning round" was 3 questions?

  3. "In the Name of GOD—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful.
    All praise is for GOD—Lord of all worlds,
    the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful,
    Master of the Day of Judgment.
    You ˹alone˺ we worship and You ˹alone˺ we ask for help.
    Guide us along the Straight Path,
    the Path of those You have blessed—not those You are displeased with, or those who are astray.
    Amen."

    Please pray these words now, pray them as you read them if you cannot look and remember them 🙏 and please begin praying on a daily basis, even if it is just once a day. It will really help you, you just have to actually do it 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
