No, it's not magic

If you have ever seen Penn & Teller, you'd remember.

Imagine Laurel & Hardy doing magic but here, the Oliver Hardy stands a full foot taller than the Stan Laurel. And Laurel doesn't talk. He can; he just doesn't. Skipper and Gilligan where the "little buddy" won't say a word. It's a funny and amazing act. They are great magicians.

But if you've ever heard Penn Jillette, the audible, sizable portion of the duo, break into his opinion of worldviews, the laughter ceases. Nothing amazing. Just vocal, bitter atheism.

The other day, a fan, a Christian fan handed Penn Jillette a Bible. Listen to how truly quieted this act made a blustery giant of a man. And pray for his soul.

Wow...that is stunning. How very sad that he can be so close and yet so off. Only God knows the seed that was planted.
