The results were positive? You mean positive you have cancer or positive you're clear? I hope it's the latter but something about the way you write indicates the former and if so ... well ... there's not much I can say except sorry mate. My wife has had cancer (currently, fingers-crossed, near 10 years clear), her mother, father and several members of her family have died form cancer as did my father (though his was smoking related) and I'm plain paranoid about it and dying in general.

Well I didn't quite say it doesn't matter, I said there are people to whom it doesn't matter ... to me these things matter a great deal. I accept that people might take that stance but I don't understand it ... as Dawkins says a universe with a god is bound to be different from one without and that the fundamental question of the existence of such a creator god is important because of its ramifications.
