It does raise one interesting question, though: if Jesus were a scientist, would he try to discredit himself?

It also raises the question of what would happen if Vinth were confronted with Fractyl Geometry. He seems to think if the Math is too complicated, it can't be true.

The true maxim would be if the mth is too complicated, Vinth can't understand it.

He should look at a very simple computer simulation called 'life'. Given six rules, pixels develop replication, predation, motion...

I guess Vinth thinks God hates complexity as much as Vinth does. Me? I think he works in mysterious ways. But that's just a bizarre minority opinion and probably all Jewish. I think Vinth would admit that, if you asked him honestly.

I just feel bad he thinks religion and science are mutually exclusive. I mean, even Popes don't think that anymore. I also think it's sad he feels the the argument from design ever intended to explain anything about God's nature and supports Hinduism, Islam, and a belief in Slappy the Almighty Clown-Weasel as nice as it explains Catholoscism. I like it when he tries to get all smart though. It's kind of cute in a queasy way.

I, for one, am glad Vinth can gaze back billions of years at a time and come up with all the permutations that the chaotic conditions on earth could have possibly produced ... I mean ... WOW!!

I think that to take everything in the Bible literally you would have to be insane.

If you take the Bible literally, wouldn't it be more like seven pairs of a bunch of them? I thought I read something like that...

im a 7th day hoppist.

i spend all day sunday hopping. i hop to church, hop through the survice, hop through lunch, etc.

i was then told my bible has a typo.

It was all based on 1 Corinthians 13, where it says, "Faith, Hop, and Charity, and the greatest of these is Hop."

(can anyone spot the red dwarf reference, clue: its above this clue)

Wow, the lameass squawks and blames ME for not reading. Hmmm....

Why don't you put down your pacifist bumper stickers and read the thread again to see what prompted me from posting in it in the first place. Now, I know common sense is hard but I think you can manage.

How could you expect him to put down bumper stickers? Wouldn't they be on his bumper? Unless of course Max is one of those people who goes through life carrying anti-war stickers on his person.

-Vinth

Alll kidding aside, I have no idea at all what this last post is supposed to mean. I'm not even talking about the bumper stickers, I guess I get that part. Since the object second paragraph is supposed to be me, I'll guess I'm who he means me by 'lameass' but which part of my 'squawking' is he refering to? And what did I 'blame' him about not reading? And in what way is that ironic?

Vinth, you seem to have a toddleresque belief that your reades are somehow privy to the thoughts going on in your head while you make your posts, as if they were some sort of DVD audio accompaniment, and that this means you don't ahve to make any effort at all to deffine what you're talking about.

Anyone who knows what this means, feel free to translate.

"Squawking" = toucan = big nose = Judaism.

Can you prompt smeone to not do something? I am actually unsure.
