Quote:This proves two things:
Firstly, that God moves in extremely mysterious, not to say, circuitous ways. God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players, [ie., everybody.] to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.
Secondly, the Earth's a Libra.

If you haven't read this already, it's a very funny book about the end of the world, as prophesized by the bible, except the angel and devil stationed on earth have grown to like earth so much they conspire together to stop the apocalypse.
