What did I bring up? Oh, yes, humans have lived in groups for a couple of hundreds of thousands of years. Those who did not steal and kill within their groups left more children than those so did and were booted from their groups.

I suggest you spend more time on relevancies. If you can.

Temujin has the most offspring of any person in history.

Apparently true (him and his sons). Also not relevant.

It occurs to me that until recently, He has spent all time making the entire universe, and this whole morality thing might be new to Him -- something He created, all right, but without nuances that are left to man!

Creation required less than one second, about 15 billion years ago.

and yet science cannot even come close to a recreation...(LOLOL) of the big bang event.   See...that's what makes it...NOT science.

What? Do you think we must recreate the Universe? Awesome.

Why are we discussing this again? Oh, right, it is a deflection from your failure to provide evidence supporting the existence of gods.

Look around you. God has made himself known.

I admit it. I laughed.

There is no evidence to support the existence of any gods, yours or someone else's.

I do this because it is fun.

It is possible you are a kook.

Where did I say that?

No point in even going there, MV. You either Believe or you don't, and I don't mean in a "Sunday go to meetin' way", at least not yet and maybe not at all. But let me make this suggestion, if I may.

Observe more closely the world around you, especially the natural world. That's all I'm going to say because it's so easy and so errant to endure ridicule that goes nowhere, comes to nothing and is without recourse of what I know to be true. I invited God to post here to you, but so far anything? He'd like you because you're a bright fellow with a good heart, like jebe. I know enough to know that that doesn't mean He won't. He might, I wouldn't know, but like I said, I'm not going there. Plus, I wouldn't believe it anyway, nor should you. For me that's an impossible conundrum. Also, it's not a safe, secure place to exchange such as would befit a Communique from God. But I don't know that either. He doesn't much care about the crap we care about. Who knows that He won't drop in on you in the middle of the night. Don't freak out if He does.

This is not to suggest I have some kind of special connection. I'm just saying that if you aren't looking for Him, odds are you won't find Him, see.
