Not being able to fully understand God is frustrating but it is ridiculous for us to think we have the right to limit God to something we are capable of comprehending. What a stunted, insignificant god that would be!

God is so much bigger, so far beyond our time-encased, air/food/sleep-dependent lives.

Being smart in the arts is the same as being smart in engineering is the same as being smart in writing is the same as being smart in anything, really.
