Stop the silly stuff you're doing there. Just imagine some extremely high IQ alien, for whom QM and relativity are kindergarten stuff. This clever alien was able to figure out all our major advances in mathematics instantly. For our alien, following arguments and deducing things is a piece of cake. Earlier today, the alien announced that he reached the absolute best explanation of all observable phenomena in the universe, he even proved that his Theory of Everything cannot be improved any further.
Our same alien asked his wife this night to make dinner for him, as his research work is taking all of his waking time. She wasn't there when he returned home. Feeling completely exhausted, he fell asleep for some minutes, woke up and went for his long-awaited meal.
It appears one of his two kids mercilessly swallowed it. After he confronted them, they simply said : any formal proof that we ate your dinner, sir ? He thought long and hard and couldn't come up with any conclusive proof, that one (or two?) of his kids, as a personal, intelligent agent, went on and devoured his dinner. He just kept asking himself, banging his head, his deduction machine, really hard against the wall : what's wrong with me? I know that these bastards are the possible explanation for my meal's sudden disappearence.. But they're pressing me for some hardcore syllogism with them in the conclusion..? Did these fools really outsmart me ?
Can any atheist here help the alien, and back his kids into a corner?
So is god supposed to be the undetectable meal with no nutritional value? Or should we divide the kids in two then eat of their flesh and drink of their blood?
Dear Mr. Alien. I feel that I should apologize. Even a simple fiction like yourself deserves a more worthy creator than this simpleton that has imagined you. You are currently bouncing around in his prefrontal lobes but if you can find your way to his brainstem and shut down his autonomous nervous system then there's probably some good eating on him. I have a good recipe for BBQ sauce if you need it. Again, my sincerest condolences and wishing you the best of luck with your meal.
