"We can't observe anywhere near everything in our own universe....."

As I was sitting by the fire, I looked at the flame and remembered something Paracles had noted long ago, ...

'ever changing yet ever remaining the same, it is all consuming yet the source of it's own life.'

Seems like Hesse captured the same sentiment with Siddhartha's fascination over the river. And let's not forget, Voltare who did do a nice job with Candide's Garden.

Hmmm ... seems to me lots of guys get pretty near to observing something near everything.

Which doesn't change what I said. We can't observe anything about any hypothetical other universes.

I found Dawkins and Dennett's arguments very unconvincing.

The bible impresses you, and that's only a child's story...

Actually it isn't.
