The God Debate

[Theland1]

I thought it might be interesting to consider if the authors of the web site below are as ridiculously and illogically as mad as I and my believing brothers and sisters are perceived to be?
I am going to have a good read of the arguments and hopefully come back in a day or so to either reap my rewards, or spend time in the AB pillory department, sentenced to many years, no doubt, of such diverse punishments as having to listen to Enya records, and fed only on garlic bread and holy water.
I would much appreciate a Mibualistic analysis from the master himself, supported, of course, by the usual suspects.

@JtP Creating "artifical" life? Care to expand?

Sure, showing that it can be done does not automatically mean it happened that way, but thats not the point. The point is the fact that such methods can result in the formation of amino acids, and self-replication molecules means we do not have to reach for a divine influence - nor, for that matter do we need to look for panspermia as an answer, which is of course perfectly plausible.

I think that given what we have seen so far, it is likely that life is going to be fairly common in the universe, but its nature is unpredictable. As to why we are not all slime, I think complexity and its evolution is probably worthy of a separate discussion.

Theland, sorry I meant to say, no, Wiz isn't still about. Shame.
