study | the origins of life in the universe seeks to prove that life did
not begin | with "a major grant" from an intelligent source, but
rather sprang up | spontaneously and entirely without purpose. | The
university will fund the research with $1 million per year in a number | of
multi-million dollar facilities, employing some of the best minds in |
science to establish that the complexity of life started with no plan, no |
design, no forethought and no intelligent creative agent. |
| "Harvard University has proven over the years that the more complex
| something is, the less likely you are to find any intelligence behind
it," | said an unnamed university spokesman. "In fact, this
'origins of life' | project started out as an accidental ink spill on
paper, and it just | developed from there."
|
| The university said the study should take several million years to
complete | and is unlikely to produce any meaningful result.

This is from The Onion, right???
