all im gonna say(well theres actually gonna be mroe then one thing) is that if god made us he fucked up big time. and wouldnt god make us more pure of heart, there is more evidence when you look around that the devil made us. also why does god have to be more powerful than the devil, cos that the way people want it, like movie endings, good must win. anyway god doesnt exist

BUT

is it totally possible theoreticaly(does that condradict?) that a mass floating about space could have inteligence and no doubt if we ever find such a thing many whackos will flip thinking its god. did ya hear that apparently the thing that stores memory and thought could maybe life outside your body as it is a energy mass in your brain, like an electric cloud. thats not proven but it is staright from the mouths of scientists.

Excerpt from "The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams...

BABEL FISH

The Babel fish, is small, yellow and leech-like, and probably the oddest thing in the Universe.

It feeds on brainwave energy not from its carrier but from those around it. It absorbs all unconscious mental frequencies from this brainwave energy to nourish itself with. It then excretes into the mind of its carrier a telepathic matrix formed by combining the conscious thought frequencies with nerve signals picked up from the speech centres of the brain which has supplied them.

The practical upshot of all this is that if you stick a Babel fish in your ear you can instantly understand anything said to you in any form of language.

The speech patterns you actually hear decode the brainwave matrix which has been fed into your mind by your Babel fish.

Now it is such a bizarrely improbable coincidence that anything so mindbogglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see it as the final and clinching proof of the non-existence of God.

The argument goes something like this:

"I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."

"But," says Man, "The Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED."

"Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanished in a puff of logic.

"Oh, that was easy," says Man, and for an encore goes on to prove that black is white and gets himself killed on the next zebra crossing.

Most leading theologians claim that this argument is a load of dingo's kidneys, but that didn't stop Oolon Colluphid making a small fortune when he used it as the central theme of his best- selling book "Well That About Wraps It Up For God."

Meanwhile, the poor Babel fish, by effectively removing all barriers to communication between different races and cultures, has caused more and bloodier wars than anything else in the history of creation.</strong><hr></blockquote>

i totally had forgotten that part of the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy...what an awesome book, rest in peace Douglas Adams..

Maybe God doesnt exist if all he made was one or the other.
