There sure are a lot of accusations of trolling today.

Are you still working, you sure post a lot lately.

Fortunately yes, it's a slow time of the year for me. I am making progress on my project though. I have one horizontal stabilizer covered and the second is not far behind.

slow time for me too this time of year, don't know what's wrong but I'm making consistent money on the ES the last few weeks during my free time.

Isn't it way past the time when you should stop being so thick.

What creator? A supernatural invisible made up concept, a natural occurrence , a quantum flux, someone called Odin, a magic sky pixie…

...what creator do you want me to deny?

While you have been ducking a simple question about the existence or non existence of a creator... you have laid to rest any question about the existence of fairies.

Some people just never learn. Myself included of course.

Enjoy your religion.

I don't have one to enjoy or not enjoy, and furthermore no doubt much to your disappointment, you can't impose one on me.

Try reasoning for once instead of just name calling and you might become better informed.

Which creator , what creator?
Naturalistic or supernatural?

The least doubt at the moment is for the existence of another witless response from you brainlessly repeating your question begging question.

"The fact is that this is what society is and always has been: a symbolic action system, a structure of statuses and roles, customs and rules for behavior, designed to serve as a vehicle for earthly heroism. Each script is somewhat unique, each culture has a different hero system. What the anthropologists call "cultural relativity" is thus really the relativity of hero-systems the world over. But each cultural system is a dramatization of earthly heroics; each system cuts out roles for performances of various degrees of heroism: from the "high" heroism of a Churchill, a Mao, or a Buddha, to the "low" heroism of the coal miner, the peasant, the simple priest; the plain, everyday, earthy heroism wrought by gnarled working hands guiding a family through hunger and disease.

It doesn't matter whether the cultural hero-system is frankly magical, religious, and primitive or secular, scientific, and civilized. It is still a mythical hero-system in which people serve in order to earn a feeling of primary value, or cosmic specialness, or ultimate usefulness to creation, of unshakable meaning. They earn this feeling by carving out a place in nature, by building an edifice that reflects human value: a temple, a cathedral, a totem pole, a skyscraper, a family that spans three generations. The hope and belief is that the things that man creates in society are of lasting worth and meaning, that they outlive or outshine death and decay, that man and his products count. ..."
