I'm always curious how the magician came to be. I mean, the universe is pretty complex, but a being that could create such complexity out of nothing must be even more amazing and complex! Now if a universe cannot simply arise without a guiding hand, surely that even more complex guiding hand could not have possibly come to be without an even greater, more complex creator. Hmmm... I smell an infinite loop here. I guess we'll have to pick an arbitrary level of complexity that we'll accept as "believable". Now doesn't it sound 'stupid and foolish' to accept that the more complex entity could always exist, but that the less complex universe couldn't have possibly always existed. http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CA/CA100.html -- Ed Leafe _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
