Gods, religions and national boundaries are absolutely imaginary. They don't tend to exist. As soon as you pull back half a mile and look down at the Earth there are no national boundaries.

I just get fascinated by people who assume that things that are imaginary have no relevance to their lives. Neil Gaiman
