    and to prove that God doesn't exist (or indeed has even a sense of humour) - here is a clip about God & Faith that is spoken by Stephen Fry an is by Douglas Adams

    But 'god' would exist in a form which we can't comorehend, surely, so to decide upon 'gods' existence using our limited experiences and tools can only be speculation at best.

    My ancestors were on the B Ark by mistake, quite clearly they were intended for the A Ark!
    As they had the supplies of washing powder and conditioner in their cases for washing and freshening the towels.

    Adams quite clearly knew everything even the true question about 42.
    I mean paranoid Androids, tablet computers, with air gestures and onscreen keyboards, personalised computer assistants like Siri and now Cortana
    Adams had the altered DNA covered too.

    "The Earth with which we are here concerned, because of its particular orientation in the Whole Sort of General Mish Mash, was hit by a neutrino that other Earths were not.

    A neutrino is not a big thing to be hit by.

    In fact it's hard to think of anything much smaller by which one could reasonably hope to be hit. And it's not as if being hit by neutrinos was in itself a particularly unusual event for something the size of the Earth. Far from it. It would be an unusual nanosecond in which the Earth was not hit by several billion passing neutrinos.

    It all depends on what you mean by "hit", of course, seeing as matter consists almost entirely of nothing at all. The chances of a neutrino actually hitting something as it travels through all this howling emptiness are roughly comparable to that of dropping a ball bearing at random from a cruising 747 and hitting, say, an egg sandwich.

    Anyway, this neutrino hit something. Nothing terribly important in the scale of things, you might say. But the problem with saying something like that is that you would be talking cross-eyed badger spit. Once something actually happens somewhere in something as wildly complicated as the Universe, Kevin knows where it will all end up- where "Kevin" is any random entity that doesn't know nothin' about nothin'.

    This neutrino struck an atom.

    The atom was part of a molecule. The molecule was part of a nucleic acid. The nucleic acid was part of a gene. The gene was part of a genetic recipe for growing... and so on. The upshot was that a plant ended up growing an extra leaf. In Essex. Or what would, after a lot of palaver and local difficulties of a geological nature, become Essex.

    The plant was a clover. It threw its weight, or rather its seed, around extremely effectively and rapidly became the world's dominant type of clover. The precise causal connection between this tiny biological happenstance, and a few other minor variations that exist in that slice of the Whole Sort of General Mish Mash - such abnormally low sales of pecan-flavoured ice-cream and the fact that the Earth On which all this occurred did not get demolished by the Vogons to make way for a new hyperspace bypass - is currently sitting at number 4,763,984,132 on the research project priority list at what was once the History Department of the University of MaxiMegalon."


    No surprise then this lucky Googleplex of a chance strike, on a cell of one branch of apes a very long time ago led to us.

    Convenient innit.

    Let's be honest, anybody who wants to believe there is supernatural activity in the world will always look for a way to make it plausible.

    Only if you want to believe it works both ways, because you have 'hope'.

    I can tell you there's a huge dildo horse hybrid that is way above human comprehension and it sneaks its way into your arsehole every night, it bends time so it's actually up there for a solid six hours banging away at your poor ring piece, but to you that time is a split second.

    You absolutely 100% cannot disprove that.

    No wonder my ****s come out like cow pats.

    So are you saying the dildo horse is an omnipotent being that is behind everything or just in the the behinds of people sleeping?

    I have a WWI soldiers bible in my possession.
    It belonged to my grandfather who fought in the Somme.
    There are some hand written notes in it that tell's it how it was on the western front.
    ****ing heartbreaking.

    any quotes from it mate?
    I for one would like to hear them.

    Read a book over 40 years ago about a 16 year old who was at the Somme.
    Still recall how much it stunned me what I was doing at 16 and what he was doing, facing death daily.
