Suggested Questions for Further Discussion/Thought

1. Why do you think scriptures suggest that human beings cannot speak the
   name of God? And why are some so intent on speaking it anyway?


2. Are there any passages in the Bible that seem cryptic to you, or possibly
   allude to some other hidden meaning? Like what?


3. Watch the movie Pi. What sort of power do people, both in the fi lm and
   in real life, give to things they don’t really understand? Why? Can this be
   dangerous?
