“For a lot of people spirituality can mean something like ghosts, you know, and hauntings. To some people it means kind of a vague feeling they get at a yoga class. And to some people it’s church on Sundays. So, I’m not really talking about any of those things,” he explains. “I’m talking about the divine components of what it means to be a human being. I’m talking about the heart, the spirit, the soul, the qualities of the divine, like love and compassion and kindness.
“Walter will make his own decisions on if he wants to be a member of a religion or if he wants to be spiritual but not religious, or if he wants to be atheist, or if he just wants to pursue pleasure and comfort, let’s say. So he’ll be making those choices as he moves into adulthood. And I hope that we gave him a foundation of some of these ideas,” he says.
“One of the hardest things is to be a comedy actor talking about God and spirituality because it’s the most uncool topic of all time — and especially in Hollywood, where everyone is jaded and too cool for school. So I have felt self-conscious about these discussions previously, but at the same time — maybe it’s because I’ve hit my mid-50s I’ve ceased caring , and so I just plunge on in,” he says.
