We focus on the first chapter on sacred spaces, where the divine breaks through (or&amp;nbsp;irrupts) our homogenous and chaotic reality, creating a center that gives us meaning and allows us to orient our lives. Plus speaking of the profane, a new study shows that cursing makes you stronger \u2013 but why in god\u2019s living fuck do they always end up spewing nonsense about the \u201cunderlying psychological mechanisms\u201d? &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Stephens, R., Dowber, H., Richardson, C., &amp;amp; Washmuth, N.
