I'm not a free thinker, and neither are you.</strong>

I was going to verbally napalm this, -until I re-read it and clicked the word 'satirical'. But it is flawed anyway, so what the hell.
Simply put, what you are saying (especially the above portion) is that there is no such thing as 'Life' which I understand is what the christian god is all about in the first place.
All christians -and you are not one at all matey!would point this out to you (-and then spoil it by saying the laws of the universe were invented by a man with a beard)
Just to niggle Theli ;o) I'll underline my agnostical thesis that the 'physical laws' that govern our brain evolution are devoid of the timescale required to evolve to the point where we could even begin to understand anything in this universe -including dieties and why the americans elected Bush as president for that matter.

Not much point in replying, Linux being a drive-by troll. <img src="graemlins/banghead.gif" border="0" alt="[Bang Head]" />

Still, props to Syphor.
