Ahhhhhhhhhh can I get back to you about the religious/philosophical idea? Off the top of my head I'd say I love the Buddhist idea of rebirth even though it contradicts my own beliefs about the soul, because it's just such a FASCINATING concept. And I love love love virtue ethics, if that counts as a philosophical idea, because it works on the principle that you should tell people what a good person IS and not what a good person DOES. Kind of. A little bit. It's more complicated than that but it's just really really cool, and I really like how it's set up.
you really *think* about things oh god do I. I overthink everything, but I'm glad it's at least mildly endearing :D
