I've read and continue to read Sagan, Clarke, Hawking, Wells, Azimov, Heinlen and I think and think and think and still have no fucking idea!
So many ideas and theories ( well supported usually) for and agin.
I loathe the idea there is no rationale behind our existence but, simultaneously, reject the notion of omniescent omnipotence.
I prefer to confine myself to mundane pursuits, friends, drinking, playing, sex, etc and leave the angst to the clerics and philosophers.
Much like this post, I could debate this issue forever and ever and ever but it would be entirely unprovable in either direction and ultimately, pointless.
Perhaps I'm too drunk. I can't see how Blue was being obnoxious?
