Yo Jesus.. What's the fastest thing in the universe? Jesus: God is. 'No no I mean what is the fastest thing on earth?' Jesus: God is. 'No no ..I mean what is the fastest observable natural thing on earth.' Jesus: Light. 'You mean the light I see.' Jesus: Yup.. Light a fire and the light from the fire travels very fast. 'How fast?' Jesus: Do you want to know for in air or in a vacuum? 'What's air or a vacuum?' anyways.. Put that in the bible and it would be good evidence of a God cause only a God would know that in the Bronze age. -- D from BC British Columbia

Larkin posted that there are very intelligent engineers and mathematicians that are Christian. This is a defense for Christianity. Then Larkin posts that he made no claim that God exists. He might still believe in God or have faith in God. Example: I can believe in leprechauns because I can believe whatever I want to believe however I make no claim leprechauns exist because I have no evidence. Because I have no evidence for leprechauns, I have faith in leprechauns. Which raises the question.. Is Larkin atheist, agnostic, theist or other..

They call it the Anthropic Principle <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic_principle> That is any observer will, by definition, "find themselves" in a universe and location suitable for life. -- John Devereux

I'm immune to what right-wingers fondly believe to be "reason" which is the endless repetition of their own favourite opinion, totally unsupported by any independently verifiable facts. -- Bill Sloman, Nijmegen |
