Do you know Gaarder's "Sophies World"?
Just finished Sophie’s World.
How did you know I would appreciate a book that both entertains and teaches? Of course, this is fiction so I don’t know where the author may have taken liberties with the facts. For instance is it true that life (DNA) could not develop on a planet where there is oxygen, so once the Earth got its atmosphere no more life can happen?
I also finished the chapter where I describe the photons inside a particle collider being transformed into electrons and positrons. I think you will like the way I fantasized the facts that you gave me. I stuck as close to those facts as possible, so everything is absolutely true but totally false.
Caveat: when I say “finished," I mean the first draft. Nothing is ever finished until I decide to just send it off for publishing.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

Nietzsche isn't dead. How do I know he lives? He lives in my mind.
