True. When we ask our brain a question it spits out an answer. No matter how dumb it is. :D

God help us if it stopped doing that.

Yah that's also how some advances and inventions were founded......Someone that asked their brain a question and got a stupid answer, then tried it anyway. The leap!

It's a love/hate thing....:)

I say God all the time and I am 100% atheist.

And I loved your post SG.

Thread drift like this proves that there really is no ultimate pattern inherent in the Universe. :)

There is no god. ;)

I'm bored. Sorry.
