Koan hi -

I'm glad you posted back ....

It goes without saying that I probably have *NO* point <g>
but that never stopped me ...

what I am trying to communicate is that it is exceedingly
significant that the universe can exist, continue to
exist, and then potentially not exist w/o a life form
ever existing ....

[and I can't prove what I just typed]

in my neck of the woods (I'm the odd man out) the universe
*exists* for life-form perpetuated reasons .... iow there is
a built in bias implying - in effect - the universe serves
us ..... or serves the BIG WHOM ....

I think a clearer perspective of the universe is gleaned
if its understood by the viewer that its totally irrelevant
whether the viewer is here or not to view .... what is being
viewed is here ....

to really dumb it down .... the minimum requirement for
existence is inorganic thingies ... the evidence being
the universe itself ....

ok - i'd better punt now -

regards,
John

I doubt whether a real scientist would "believe" such a thing. Give it a high probability perhaps, but generally science requires evidence.
