Pedro Friedberg avoids news because it makes him anxious and believes fate determines most of life. He credits good luck for his circumstances and describes himself as almost completely atheist, though nature moves him toward a faint belief in God.
Chapters
I am very worried. That's why I prefer not to read the newspaper or watch television or anything, because the state of the world generally makes me feel very nervous. And car wild had this Irish blood. I think it's very calming. Fate tells us all. There's almost nothing we can do. Almost nothing. You also say that you've been very lucky, that destiny is almost completely written. That you were able to change yours a little, but that a good one touched you. For people who have beliefs or religions, destiny is very important. Right? I'm almost completely atheist, but when I look at nature around me, I want to believe a little in God, but I don't know what God is. No, No. I don't understand the concept of God. I don't like it very much.
