i always wondered why it never occurred to people that God is *less* complex than us, not more complex.
there is a saying i heard from one of my computer science professors, it probably applies to other areas too (sculpting comes to mind LOL). it is simply: you are finished when there is nothing more to remove, NOT when there is nothing more to add.
do we really need a digestive system? arms? fingers? eyes? ears? wouldn't a formless pool of energy be a more efficient being?
i'm not saying there is or is not God. i certainly believe there is something more than us in the universe. i mean, it would be pathetic if *we* are the best the universe can do. obviously there must be other life out there, since the universe is so huge, but i mean there must be a more advanced form of life out there than us.. one that has been around millions of years longer, or has a steeper progress curve.
on a side note.. anyone that believes in God also believes in extraterrestrials.
