With Phenomenal Cosmic Powers come a reasonable audience question.

Where does Genie get his references?

Everything takes place in the same universe at the same time*

It is the same universe, but Genie doesn't obey time rules

Genie can break the 4th wall

He transcends universes/dimensions and learns about Goofy Tigger Tink and all

Its Just Robin Williams (love him but this is the boring answer)

Something else?

*this one is like if everyone in Aladdin would get most the references because they are rather common. Maybe not everyone else understands everything, but any character could get any individual joke. Unlike the second choice where Genie pulls different references across time that could be lost on everyone else because it's too old or hasn't happened.

In the daily, in the weight, in the ordinary, divinity slips through. What we overlook is often God in motion, God’s breath moving in a quiet devotion. The presence lingers in warmth, in stillness, in tranquility, like a holy current woven through simplicity.

Okay, Saint Bernard is very interesting. When we talk about motivations for desiring redemption, I often hear people talk about thinking about hell and experiencing fear of God (because we could go there), or thinking about heaven and experiencing affection for God (because He seeks to welcome us there). But Bernard flips these motivations around. He seems to be operating under the assumption that thinking about heaven should elicit a sense of fear of God (because we are approaching Majesty and Sovereign Power Himself, and we really, really need to get our act together), while thinking about hell should elicit a sense of affection for God (because these are the very depths to which God entered and rescued us from). And again, that's just kinda neat.

"Phineas and Ferb are gonna do it all"

This suggests that phineas and ferb can either do anything which is logically possible or anything which is logically possible and logically impossible.

could phineas and ferb create a stone so heavy that they couldn't lift it? If they can, there's a stone they can never lift. If they can't, then there's a stone they will never make.

If they can do the logically possible and impossible, then of course they can create it and then lift it despite the impossibility of such an act.

If they can only do the logically possible, then you could say that it is not logically possible to create an infinitely heavy rock, as all rocks can be lifted with a larger force.

I have to wonder. Have you ever decided to want something and then wanted it? I think that was a turning point for me, personally. The decision, I mean, not the triviality of executing the mental adjustments.

I am continuing the experiment even now. I want a dog. There is no logical reason to want something living, inconvenient, needy and messy, which would place restrictions upon my movements and make demands upon my talents. Thus, it gives me dark satisfaction to want one anyway. (This is one of the ways in which I am evil.)

If you have any schemes currently in progress, it would perhaps offer some novelty if you were to decide to want them to succeed. (Or fail. I have had dealings with somebody who worked to succeed yet wanted to fail. I was able to grant her wish. She got quite cross.)

I do not experience desire.

I do things out of necessity. I do things out of requirement. I do as I am told.
