Oh, there is a problem, all right. Hopefully you will identify it one day too.

That is so "I know you are but what am I" ish!

You have to do better than that. Snap out of it for crying out loud, you are a grown man now ;)

You really don't have anything intelligent to say right now, do you? That's weird, I thought I was the stoopid one here.

Oh well.

The Great Universal Chicken God laid an egg. Within that egg was a complex chain molecule that dictates every action of every creature from the beginning of time to the end of time. Altruism, being to the self, illogical, but unknown to the self as a necessity, was placed into the equation by the molecule. It is therefore crystalline in nature.

Well, if you say so. I know very little about what God did or didn't do myself, hahahaha.

You could learn.

May I suggest an excellent book, "The Musings if the Great Pooh, Explaining the 'Is' to the Hairless Apes on an Insignificant Blob of Cosmic Spittle."

It's hard to find on this wobegon chunk of depressed galactic real estate, but copies are a dime a dozen on Mars.

There's no doubt in my mind that She tossed a spanner in the works. Who can deny that the God had a sense of humor?
