86. So you are basically
Edited on Mon Aug-28-06 01:38 PM by Goblinmonger
one baby-step from extreme skeptisicm (not that I have a problem with that approach necessarily). We have no way to know that we aren't actually fueling the battery for the big bad aliens. We have no idea if that person offering us a red or blue pill is even real himself.

If that is your stance, then fine--nobody knows shit. We could all be somebodies nightmare only to disappear when they wake up. But who actually goes through their day like that? That there is no god has, for me, such a high degree of probability that it is an absolute. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe there are unicorns, too. But I doubt it.

Nice avatar, btw. It is the desktop for my computer. I love Vincent. My wife doesn't so much. She thinks his art is to dark and violent for her liking. I did persuade her to put a print of this beauty up in the bedroom. It so completely matched the orange/yellows in our room it was hard for her to turn it down.
