It will shatter every barrier, sunder any shield, tear through any enchantment, and lend its servant the power to pass sentence.

About how we were all created by a super-powerful dude named God who lives up in the sky? Total bullshit.

Like Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. “Oh, and by the way … there’s no Santa Claus or Easter Bunny. Also bullshit. Sorry, kid Deal with it.”
