"To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today."

Never have, never would. Interesting that the poor folk who choose to ignore the most obvious in our existence are the quickest to use the word "ignorance." Then, they spend their lives in confusion. I constantly give thought to the science involved in the operation of creation. I'm simply open to the fact that there is a lot more to it. Well, like I said have fun. Your focus is to limited for me. Let's not waste each other's time any more.

Certainty without proof or evidence - isn't that special! In fact, it's kind of like OJ's acquittal to me. It is great to wonder and entertain the improbable as a notion, but so many people stop wondering and replace it with addle-headed certainty (or doubt as the situation requires). There is a lot more reason to doubt what we believe than to be certain.

Speaking of which, did you know that there is a well-documented anomaly associated with the motion of a Focault pendulum and lunar eclipses?
