 >>> Clarence Hogan on Universal Chit Chat 
 WE> Uncertain principle prevents exact measurements.
 CH> Not with a variable rule it doesn't!
Huh?  
 
 CH> Haven't been to the anti-matter universe yet to see, but will
 CH> one day and let you know if there are anti-people there!
Don't take any ordinary matters with you, it'll be more of a blast than you 
bargained for.
 CH> Yup, there is somebody that is the only somebody that has
 CH> requirements of the universe and everything in it!
Someday over the rainbow...
 
 CH> The small pile of dust that was made into what we call man, viz.,
Like salt in the ocean, it takes but a drop to know how the whole ocean 
tastes;  a small pile of dust is just as dusty as a big pile.
 WE> Indeed you are in the good company of them and thousands of atheists
 WE> of whom the same has been said. 
 CH> Who shall deliver me from this body of death?
Deliver from?  Don't you mean to?  Time, just you wait.
 
 WE> What?  You are not a man dreaming of a butterfly but the butterfly
 WE> dreaming that you are a man? 
 CH> What?  Beats me, it seems to have flew the coop!  :)  Does a
 CH> butterfly know the difference between a man and a tree, or is a man
 CH> just another tree for the butterfly to land on to rest or seek food?
Only in your dreams. -)
 
 CH> ... You could never convince a fish that the world wasn't all water!
 WE> Yes I could but it wouldn't live to tell about it.
 CH> Possibly not, but the fish would probably think that the water was
 CH> just too thin at the height you had taken him cause he could no 
 CH> longer breath, and with his dying breath he would yell at his 
 CH> friends below in the water not to jump too high without their 
 CH> water space suit on, right?
They're quiet aware of being out of the water and know what to do about that 
with what little they have to move around with.
... Both atheists and theists think too much about god.
