A position entirely easy to understand

I have in fact searched in vain for a mini-drone as a disability aid.  Maybe next year.  On the one hand if I’ve left my phone in the bedroom it would just be so cool to dispatch the little darling to flip flap fly locate and return. On  the other hand of course it would mean I should remain seated even more, bad thing.  There are of course enormous possibilities for anyone with a disability.  A driverless shopping trolley could be sent trundling off to the Co-op or for that matter M+S programmed with a smartcard of needs.  Product code on the Website, problem solved. 

Oh how badly the bottomlessly vile fascist fake Left want everyone kept illiterate and ignorant and dead from the neck up, how desperately murderously important it is to them these animals at UCH are never confronted with knowledge or expected to think.

Do the great avatars of God Almighty, the clinical nurse specialists, actually do anything a computer couldn’t.  Only at the human level, only holding a patient’s hand, human warmth.  Do the doctors do anything a computer couldn’t.  That’s a more interesting one for the medical profession to talk among itselves about.  The nurses take calls from patients, some of which they can answer, others of which they can’t and add the patients to the clinic-list for a doctor to see.  Obviously a computer can adjust a chemotherapy regimen.  No doctor is 100% infallible in his or her judgement.  The question is whether AI is as reliable. 

Jesus said people could be better.  Marx said people could be better.  You are funny.
Your fucking problem is what?

There is no accommodation with the suspension of reason, the suspension of morality. It's generally called Nazism or Stalinism.  It is apparently also the coming thing.  There is a manufactured hysteria concerning language and thought. We are supposed to be chimpanzees. We are not supposed to be able to deal with words and ideas. We are supposed to react like hysterical inadequates faced with words and ideas we do not like. We are not supposed either to be able to think or to be capable of accepting that others think.

We may say - what may we say? Perhaps that fact is unyielding, absolute, while the context of fact, comprehension of the reality of which it is an aspect, may change: apples do not cease to fall downwards because aspects of Newton's physics have been surpassed, nor does the horizon vanish because we now know it is not the rim of the world.

Like the religious zombie, the medical zombie functions intellectually working within a given frame of reference, regards it as frightening, evil and perhaps impossible to smash through the walls of this cage, question the frame of reference. Propositions are not considered objectively, on their merits if any, but regarded as good or evil, sane or mad, depending on whether or not they mesh with the assumptions that constitute the walls of the cage.

Monkey see, monkey touch, monkey feel. The biologist monkey is desperately ill at ease with things he cannot put in a test-tube. The whole of human intellectual history is of course contained thereout.

As it is irreligious to disparage the versions of reality given in holy books, so it is unscientific to disparage a reality confined to a test-tube. The secret of religion, as of Stalinism and Nazism, is to satisfy monkey, who is also human, with explanation for what he sees, touches, feels. Monkey is also human: monkey has mind, whether he likes it or not. Monkey imagines the world and is content, living in an imagined reality and screaming when actual reality intrudes. What was a satisfactory explanation to those living hundreds of years ago is not nor is likely to be satisfactory to us with a multiplicity of referents to which to compare the dream. Nonetheless, it is demanded of us we share the fantasy.

Freedom and democracy demand humans be human, accept the reality, the individuality of other humans, be capable of thought, be capable of choice, be capable of decency towards other humans.

If mind does not exist, then freedom and democracy are unnecessary; both are about choosing and you can’t choose if you have nothing to choose with.
 
Anyone who hasn’t long ago worked out this is about Dust is even more stupid than even I think he or she is, if that is in fact possible.Oh, how they hate Dust and the University is Dust and the clouds Zeus gathers are yet more Dust. Yes, of course the University is other,more prosaic things and even subversion and decadence parties, though it must be admitted that, although my boyfriend of the time and I dressed for the occasion, we never actually reached the party. Consequently no pics available. Sorry. 
 
No Dust, no University.Severed. Dust is evil. Dust is to be eliminated. Consequently every dead-head of any religion or none in London on my back, not so to speak. Whatever pushes the buttons of the hearer, of course,different lies for different people, confident there will be no open examination of the facts. I think it's called Chinese whispers. 
 
No Dust, no liberty. With Dust, freedom and democracy; no Dust, fascism and slavery.This is about what people are, which I said if not on Day One then on Day Two:
The world's ideologies divide into cultures of the outside and cultures of the inside. A culture of the outside holds that the individual is moulded by the external world and so is both victim and slave -to environment, to fellow-humans, to self - is a hollow gourd or empty shell to be filled with the Beloved Leader's version of reality. Where no determined State attempts at brain-washing occur, the hollow gourd is merely a passive recipient of fate, a creature of instinct, to whom responsibility is meaningless. A culture of the inside holds that the individual has a central processing unit (CPU)otherwise known as mind that analyses the external world and forms himself or herself and so his or her own views from the results of this analysis, is capable of choice. Where there is no CPU,nothing inside to form oneself with, the opinions and reactions of others are defining and must therefore be controlled or censored. This underpins Orwell's 'Freedom is Slavery' and Marcuse's' repressive tolerance'. You have no means of handling words that displease you. They therefore oppress you.
 
This has implications that have wholly corroded society. Firstly there is the victim culture. Since nothing is your fault, you are the product of socio-economic forces, it is wrong to deride, criticize,censure, abuse you if you behave like a piece of vomit. Secondly, what others see as intellectual corruption and social engineering is not understood as wrong – it’s only the socio-economic circumstances into which you were born that prevented you excelling academically, everyone is just as bright as everyone else, and having failed five CSEs in no way indicates that you are not just as good as someone who achieved an Honours degree. Thirdly, the censorious proliferate.
 
The root of this is the Marxist-materialist religion of apeism. There were ten green bottles hanging on the wall and if one green bottle should accidentally fall…Actually there were seven green bottles. Art, literature, language, history, philosophy, liberty and theology, and holding them on the wall was mind. Then one day behind the useful idiots a group of evil men removed the lynch-pin that there be no green bottles hanging on the wall and we all have to act like and think like and obey like intelligent chimps instead of being humans.Liberty is a human concept and most of our problems with it stem from the primate elements in the brain. The most elementary of these evolutionary hang-ups is the primate pecking order. A larger more powerful ape beats his chest and otherwise suggests his displeasure and the unconscious thinker toes the line. Only might is right. The mental development of individual humans starts where physical evolution ends. Obsession with form, external appearance, is another evolutionary hang-up. As a chimp recoils at the shape of a snake, so racists and sexists respond to colour or gender. Elements on the Left are equally hypnotised by biology. Where individual characteristics such as honesty, integrity, intellect, application - qualities of mind - have been abandoned as 'elitist' or 'relative values', all that remains is the nonsense that the most insignificant of human attributes,gender and race, are defining.
 
Mind is supposed not to exist and recourse to fact and reason is rejected as elitist. The West is therefore supposed to lie defenceless in what is essentially a mind-game: mind, fact and reason do not stop existing because traitors say they do; the trick is persuade (by force or otherwise) the majority of people to a mind-set from which mind, fact and reason are absent. In particular they should not allude to the facts of democracy and civil liberties; since mind does not exist, the ability to make up one’s mind cannot exist, let alone the right to do so and, Homo sapiens sapiens being in its raw state before its mind has been kicked into working a self-centred little sod, people cannot be expected to consider another’s point of view and so accept another’s equal right to speak.
 
Manifestations of heart or mind transcending the hard wiring - ethical or intellectual standards - are dismissed as elitist, the benchmark being set by the Inner Ape. Standards of behaviour in public have been cast off as some tyrannical yoke imposed from without when they are what may be expected to arise naturally from within. A fit young man who is compos mentis might reasonably be expected to see the woman with two toddlers has a greater need for his seat than he.
 
We are all born squawly little hairless chimps. We are also all born with a mind and a capacity for love. We are all born with the capacity to over-ride the hard-wiring. We are not all born brilliant but we can still empathize and it is empathy with others that demands we give them equal rights.Choice is an artefact of mind. If mind does not exist, then democracy is unnecessary. A rigid materialism lies at the root of the Left’s trampling on liberty. They don’t see it as something they despise. They see it as something that doesn’t exist. Freedom in leftist literature is defined in terms of economics. The Left is also of course hot on sexual freedom. Mental freedom comes nowhere.
 
Instead of looking at ‘human’ and forming their theory based on observation (the methodology of the humanities), they look at a molecule and decide what ‘human’ must be. Intellectually dishonest is pretending the only alternative position is religion. They call themselves humanists. I’m a humanist. They’re apeists.
 
Leftist educationalists have canonized
The naked ape’s terminal self-centredness which should not be corrected
The naked ape’s capacity to form delusional mind-constructs, which should not be tested against reality
In short there has been an assault on being human.
 
A generation has grown up or maybe two not educated to have any fixed points of reference, moral or intellectual, outside the self. They have never had their minds stretched or been made to clarify what they think and why they think it, test their views against fact and reason, which are meaningless to them, as are the separateness of others and of course the equal rights of others.To suggest something awry with these generations, to require any moral or intellectual standards, to expect some minimum standard of conduct or performance is to be ‘elitist’ and subject to abuse and outrage. To indicate the source of the nonsense is to be dangerous.
 
People are accustomed to believe, and have been encouraged in the belief by some who aspire to the character of philosophers, that their feelings, on subjects of this nature, are better than reasons, and render reasons unnecessary. The practical principle which guides them to their opinions on the regulation of human conduct is that feeling in each person’s mind that everybody should be required to act as he, and those with whom he sympathizes, would like them to act.JS Mill, On Liberty
 
Sure, it’s not only Taoists, Sufis and Discordians who have some idea how people work.
 
All silencing of discussion is an assumption of infallibility. Its condemnation may be allowed to rest on this common argument, not the worse for being common….few think it necessary to take any precautions against their own fallibility, or admit the supposition that any opinion, of which they feel very certain, may be one of the examples of the error in which they admit themselves to be fallible…People more happily situated…place the same unbounded reliance only on such of their opinions as are shared by all who surround them, or to whom they habitually defer; for in proportion to man’s want of confidence in his own solitary judgement, does he usually repose, with implicit trust, in the infallibility of ‘the world’ in general. And the world, to each individual, means the part of it with which he comes in contact; his party, his sect, his church, his class of society…Nor is his faith in this collective authority at all shaken by his being aware that other ages, countries, sects,churches, classes and parties, have thought and even now think the exact reverse….it never troubles him that mere accident has decided which of these numerous worlds is the object of his reliance,and that the same causes which made him a Churchman in London would have made him a Buddhist or Confucian in Pekin.

The injured innocence of the bone-idle is particularly good. Nothing wrong with me. I got my rights. The rights they trumpet are not real rights: real rights end where someone else's rights begin.The entirely appropriate - I at least appropriate it - response to being pushed around - hey man, off my cloud! - has been transmuted into a charter for messing others around. Where self is all, the crime-rate rises with the surrender to the urge to mug, maim or rape and utter contempt for the rights of the victim. Fake notions of 'free' abound, dictated by self. There is nothing super-cool about being an airhead or any other kind of head and no-one slave to the next orgasm and the next high (both the ultimates in self-obsession when there is a busy buzzing world out there to be discovered) is truly mentally free.The university has been remodelled as the source of vocational training certificates for those who have never come across a new idea, do not want to come across new ideas, and don't think anyone else should, either. In part, of course, the hatred of thinking, questioning, arguing, comes from their  brute illiteracy. They are incapable of dealing with the written word, cannot expound ideas they uphold let alone argue against ideas they dislike. They are disempowered. They may be intelligent.Any intellectual potential they possess goes unrealized. Unless you are able to express what you think you think in writing, your thought remains fuzzy, that, no matter how interesting what you have to say, what new discovery you have to share with the world, it might as well not exist unless you can accurately and clearly convey it to fellow-humans.
If no-one may criticize the stupid, idle, illiterate, ignorant, vicious, sad, bigoted, incompetent who deny freedom of speech to others, the consequence is governance according to their lights. We approach therefore the world in which the only voices that may be heard are those of the stupid,ignorant, vicious, sad, bigoted, illiterate, idle, incompetent, self-important, power-crazed and merely mad who deny freedom of speech to others, for no-one may tell them to butt out, stop screwing up,go away and read up on what the hell they’re talking about before they open their mouths. The Official Lie is of course grounded in the notion that having your backside kicked will scar and traumatize you for life, that what you are is fixed, you are incapable of changing yourself but become what you are told you are if you weren’t it to start with, which you probably were.
Extract from
The Matter of Britain
And so the quantum world  killed the great head-monkey in the sky?  The great head monkey in the sky died when the first Hindu said, I am Brahma, when Jesus said the Kingdom of Heaven is within, when Al-Hallaj proclaimed I am God!  but still the diseased old monkeys preyed upon people, feasted off the hard-wiring and grew fat, all must bow down and worship the great head monkey in the sky, whose attributes are of course what the apes say they are and thus so remarkably resemble a twitching penis and are in all respects exceedingly antsy.  Oh how dreadfully upset the great head monkey in the sky gets if you do not worship him.
Again the Catechism:
Wounds to unity
817 In fact, "in this one and only Church of God from its very beginnings there arose certain rifts, which the Apostle strongly censures as damnable. But in subsequent centuries much more serious dissensions appeared and large communities became separated from full communion with the Catholic Church - for which, often enough, men of both sides were to blame."269 The ruptures that wound the unity of Christ's Body - here we must distinguish heresy, apostasy, and schism270 - do not occur without human sin:

Where there are sins, there are also divisions, schisms, heresies, and disputes. Where there is virtue, however, there also are harmony and unity, from which arise the one heart and one soul of all believers.271

The Church holds we are helpless without God. We cannot do good without God and so without something entering us from outside. There is no mechanism inside people capable of moral choice. What the rest of us would regard as a natural plurality of perspectives is a wound to unity.

The core of it remains that independent mental activity is considered synonymous with self, to assert the existence of a functioning mind as heart, to have one’s own views not those dictated by another, supposedly speaking on behalf of the God person, to be human, is self-will and rebellion
Undoubtedly extra-normal events occur, if not often, for instance spontaneous remission.  Is the mind not a complex and wonderful thing? Jesus of course may be still alive somewhere, but so may everyone else who ever lived.

​Quantum immortality
Proponents of the idea point out that while it is highly speculative, there is nothing in the notion of quantum immortality that violates the known laws of physics
 
An easier to understand example is the one given in quantum suicide where a physicist sits in front of a gun which is triggered, or not triggered, by radioactive decay. With each run of the experiment there is a 50-50 chance that the gun will be triggered and the physicist will die. If the Copenhagen interpretation is correct, then the gun will eventually be triggered and the physicist will die. If the many-worlds interpretation is correct, then at each run of the experiment the physicist will be split into a world in which he lives and one in which he dies. In the worlds where the physicist dies, he will cease to exist. However, from the point of view of the physicist, the experiment will continue running without his ceasing to exist, because at each branch, he will only be able to observe the result in the world in which he survives, and if many- worlds is correct, the physicist will notice that he never seems to die therefore proving himself to be immortal, or at least according to quantum immortality. http://www.biologydaily.com/biology/Quantum_immortality
 
Freak you, does it, you futile ludicrous little animals.  Yet another evil to be eliminated.  
 
Yup, we are pretty helpless without the spark within that of course the offal of Rome and Riyadh do their damnedest to crush, terrorize into extinction: cut off from, Severed, in Mr Pullman's glorious word.   I even told the loonies what I personally believe.
 
There is no alpha baboon in the sky, beating his chest and punishing uppity females.  That field of human experience known variously as expansion of consciousness, self-realization, Union with God is a matter of physics.

I don't suppose the louts who have molested me do like my eschatology, my physics, or my philosophy of love, but since I live in a free country what they do and do not like is a matter of the profoundest indifference to me. I do not give a flying fuck, guys. Is some part of that unclear? Certainly the Left is supposed to represent the dull, ignorant, brutish, savage and vile. It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it. The Left is supposed to raise them up, not drag all of us down into the gutter.

There is light, energy, power, perceived by some as 'God'.
Before this the little primate brain cowers in fear or not as the case may be.
There is no ‘Law’.
Love is Light. Light is energy. Energy is power. Energy is not, however, authority, hierarchy, pushing other people around.
‘The law’ is projection onto that power by the fear-filled unevolved fractured ape-brain of the heterosexual human male of what ‘must be’. What ‘must be’ is not what is.
Transitory states are taken for abiding truths.
Fracture is taken for the Whole.
Agency is introduced where no agency exists.
There are glitches in space and time not sendings and revelations.
Love is what some people label God.
Neither God is Love nor Love is God are susceptible of literal interpretation.

Supposing you're a writer, wanting to get certain key-points across. God is for everyone, the poor and uneducated and the rich and learned alike. Shepherds, definitely shepherds. Shepherds are good. But God is Everyman not a child of privilege. The rich and learned are not commonplace in stables. Lightbulb moment: let's have some travelling scholars.
You want to make it clear God is knowable and approachable.
At the other end of the story you want to make it clear God is not about earthly power.
If my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight for it.
You want to make it clear love is stronger than death.

Every -ism is an an attempt to make aspects of reality, transient realities, temporary realities into absolutes, metaphors for reality into literal truths.

Every -ism is undermined by and eventually crashes on reality, the reality of the physical universe, the reality of individual humans in all their variety, insistent on being what they are not what they're told to be, the reality of the existence of a multiplicity of other ways of looking at the world. This is what happened to Christianity. This is what happened to Marxism.

The vehicle is mistaken for the destination. The shape, size, colour or velocity of the vehicle does not matter. What determines the destination is the driver.

If it is imprinted on your consciousness that Jesus is Lord or there is no God but Allah, you must arrive somewhere where Jesus is Lord or there is no god but Allah, unless of couse somewhere along the road something clicks and you have learned to let go of all your preconceptions.

If other things are indelibly imprinted on your consciousness, then you must arrive where these others things are so, because you are shaping the road, unless of course etc, in other words if you stop shaping the road.

The key to totalitarianism is the supposed helplessness of individual human beings. There is nothing inside. Either they are helpless without the assistance of whatever version of the divine multi-vitamin in the sky happens to be current or they are individually helpless and only collectively capable, whether as the proletariat or as the Volk. On no account must any individual think he or she is significant or empowered.

Rejection of the notion human consciousness shapes the trip lies behind acceptance of 'revelation'.

There is the question of whether everything that occurs to persons is self-generated or whether it may be a connection with other times, other places, other dimensions and the further question of whether such a connection ever is or can be pure or whether it must be refracted through what the human mind thinks (both consciously and unconsciously) must be.

There is the impossibility of the primate brain believing such a connection, should it exist, being a result of human capacity and consequently its convictions that some higher entity is revealing something to it.

There is the incapacity of the primate brain to deal with its own personal 'big bang', consciousness, and to believe itself capable - that that which sustains, that which reveals, that which is everything, is within, 'the force that through the green fuse drives the flower'.

There is one perfectly good sense in which humans are puny and insignificant, and that is as a part of the universe, which as we know is like big. We are not required to find a hill-top to stand on to daily tell the universe how small and meaningless we are, what crap we are or others are, how we hope the universe will forgive us for existing, how much we beg it to let us do its will.

There is and has been for as long as humans started to think about these things, an area of human thought in which belief and unbelief meet. The orthodox of course both know about it and strive with all their might to enforce division. That is pantheism, the proposition everything is in essence god, you, me, the fly buzzing against the window, the lilies of the field. 'Are ye not better than they?' Different: ye have the capacity called consciousness to know what ye are.

To write of goodness, truth, beauty and love, of 'avatars of living grace', is to demonstrate the evil, falsity, ugliness and hate of orthodox religion, which is of course something the free world has long been aware of, but that is apparently unknown to our Beloved Leaders.
Very clear
It is not necessary to believe in the Christian or any other ‘revelation’ to attempt to love one’s neighbour as oneself.
Crimes against persons and property are the consequence of self-will; I want your Rolex and the hell with what you feel about it.  The solution is not more religion, but more love.  Society might actually have benefited if for the last 30 years bloody priests had been wandering around doing their bloody job, which is suggesting to people that we love one another, instead of the moron drivel that absence of faith is ultimate evil.
 
No-one has ever commented upon, positively or negatively, the Word of God, because no-one has a clue what the Word of God is, it is not identified. There is only what some people say is the Word of God, if It has a word, if it is not a state of being, ineffable, rather than a sexually disturbed male monkey, if ever there was a making in man’s image and likeness. And of course if It exists it is It, without gender, so representing all genders.
No recognition that these creatures are simply psychopaths, incontinent impotent animals incapable or affecting to be incapable of either self-command – changing what one thinks and feels – or self-control – containing what one thinks and feels – who totally despise anyone who doesn’t share their views, to whom it doesn’t occur others have an equal right to opinions of our own. Government by hysteria and psychosis. Some animal only has to start throwing itself around and dribbling about its bloody religion and all rational process is forbidden. Everyone go Aaah. It is upset. No-one asks whether its distress is sane.
No recognition their beliefs are drivel or filth or both. All that matters is they don’t think they’re drivel or filth or both. Absolutely no recognition from our diseased and obscene politicians that people who think there’s only one book in the world, the world is to be seen as described in that book and people who think the book is crap are evil are screaming nutters.
No recognition there is not one scrap of evidence God exists and made their bloody revelations, that people are not to be prosecuted or otherwise harassed for objecting to a bloody fantasy that exists only in the minds of believers. Fucking Christ, it’s like prosecuting people for saying The Lord of the Rings is crap. Many people are deeply sincere believers in the power of Sauron. Most of them are in the House of Commons.
No recognition that words are not to be answered by force, whether incarceration or violence.
Not one word of recognition that the reason these creatures are intellectually and morally obscene is the filthy anti-educations they’ve received at the hands of their filthy religions, mutilating them, turning them into androids, teaching them independent action of their hearts and minds is evil and sinful, that they have no independent life, their business is simply to believe what they are taught and be the tools of their masters.
No recognition that people newly arrived in a country need to adjust themselves to the ways of that country. Only the certainty the country has to destroy itself to accommodate them.
* Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech.
* Over himself, over his body and mind, the individual is sovereign.
* Society has the right to require of every public agent an account of his administration.
The cornerstones of Anglo-American democracy not even mentioned or discussed, let alone adhered to.
No demand of course they keep their filthy ape claws to themselves, no, no, other people have to suffer, be harassed, victimized because of sicko monkeys.
No recognition their conduct is criminal if not called religion.
Not one word of recognition that insult to religion is the cornerstone of the free world, the overthrow of religious authority, or that it is normal, or was until about 20 years when the rot set in.
Nor of course do the Christian clergy let alone anyone else point out that Jesus’ doctrine was non-violence and Mohammed’s was violence and consequently many people, believers and non-believers alike, in the Christian and post-Christian worlds do not like it or regard it as holy.
No problem except the determined presentation of everything from the perspective of the perverted freak loon sicko psycho to whose control we are to be delivered bound and of course gagged.
But of course they can’t do it overtly. They can’t close the National Physical Laboratory or Departments of Evolutionary Biology
They can only corrupt the law and the courts and the public through education, target individuals who have retained the temerity of having minds of our own.
2000 fucking years for women to finally get rid of them and oh they just can’t understand what I’m upset about because they know what women are, and what all women should be, and of course they treated me correctly, and I’m obviously mad and unstable for not understanding that, and everyone goes along with them, it’s insanity, no matter how obvious the facts, how obvious my loss of mobility, why on earth does that disturb me? Of course there’s nothing wrong with ignoring everything I said. I’m a woman. How can anything I said possibly matter?
It is not possible to regard any of you as anything other than a vile ludicrous joke. 
If God a being exists, conversation with It and sundry other beings - Michael? Gabriel? Raphael?- and puh-lease 'It' is the only rational pronoun, must provide hours not to say aeons of delight to Darwin, Huxley, Crick, Watson, Einstein, Schroedinger, sharing Its knowledge of space-time and evolutionary biology, introducing them to other universes in the multiverse where other physical and biological laws apply. Now that's diversity. To put it more formally, any entity called God must by definition be omniscient and there can be no requirement to pay the slightest attention either to any product of the human imagination who clearly hasn't a clue or to his followers. The word you seek is mad. Madness is generally held to be divorce from reality and such persons dwell in a world that exists only in their heads. Indeed, if in the course of conversation someone tells you the earth is flat, it does not instantly strike you that he and those who share his mind are critical voices in the running of the nation. If he goes on to tell you he thinks everyone who disparages him and those who share his mind should be locked up, executed or otherwise punished, you may indeed conclude that it is he and those who share his mind who should be locked up for their own safety and that of those around them.
The fight is for a world-view grounded in reality. The war against flat-earthers has really very little to do with whether there are or are not deities of some kind, indifferent or caring, whether the universe is chaotic or orderly, whether the Beijing Olympics happened concurrently in curved space and so is behind us and the universe as we know it is the result of a ping-pong ball straying into our dimension. The basic proposition to be confronted and defeated is that the universe has to be approached on one's knees. It is all known. While normal people have opinions or theories, put forward propositions, may indeed have strongly held beliefs, the excrement claim to know that which is untenable, that for which there is no shred of evidence, that which is readily countered, that which is rampantly sick nonsense. The universe, we have from no less a source than Douglas Adams, is like big, man. Yahweh-Allah-Jehovah may at best be deemed a very local, provincial deity, obsessed as he supposedly is by the minutiae of the behaviour of the inhabitants of the third rock from the sun, right down to the menstrual cycle of the human female, where perhaps he is most obviously the figment of the imagination of the primitive human male, with ape-man's obsession with female virginity coming a good joint second with the simple hairy notion that, since he is an incontinent male animal, incapable of either self-control or individuation of the females of the species, those females should be modest in order not to unleash his lust. Nor has Yahweh-Allah-Jehovah had anything to say of late. Perhaps he has cleared off to some other part of the universe and has lost all interest in the human race.
A position it is entirely easy to understand.
