[kj] OT: Pat Condell

[Brendan]

What I find interesting is that there's no falsifiable (even falsifiable
in principle) scientific explanation for the big bang or the existance of
the universe itself, but the Intelligent Design brigade are so staunchly
defending their position, which is one that takes place AFTER the big
bang.

Evolution says nothing whatsoever about the origin of space / time /
matter, and from what I can tell would sit nicely alongside a theory of
the existance of God, it just means he wasn't responsible for much after
the big bang, other than growing an impressive beard, setting bushes on
fire, and counting how many times I've been interfering with myself.

Perhaps all that wanking has been taking up too many CPU cycles in God's
head. We could try an annual Worldwide Non-Interference Week to see if it
has any impact on world peace? I'll need a shitload of model planes or
something to fill in the time...

;p
