- I like this, Kalki! I really do! You are admitting that a program, when run on its
- own, can produce order and information. As an analogy the universe has completely
- run on its own since the Big Bang. _*BUT*_ whatever caused the Big Bang is
- totally irrelevant to whatever happened after it, whether there is a natural cause
- or there is some divinity behind it.
