Ruling with an iron-edged ruler

LJK — 6/20/2006 7:00:50 PM (archived)

You should have heard my "discussions" with the nuns about God and
evolution.

We're both going straight to hell for this, of course.

Doesn't it worry anyone about even the possibility of the Universe being
controlled by a powerful being who sends such tiny and isolated creatures
such as ourselves to some parallel dimension for eternal torment if we don't
get it together in the mere 80-odd years we have to exist? And even
worse that so many of these same small creatures accept this?

What if God is a crazy scientist from an alternate universe who created us
just so he could have someone to control in his otherwise sad little life?

I don't know about you, but I ain't taking it lying down. We need to evolve
to Artilect level soon and find a way to rip through the megaverse to find this
alien dweeb and take him down!
