When the fist mouse in he thought the house was just magical and would produce wonderful music on it's own.
Then the second mouse came along did not accept the magic house answer and went exploring and found the piano, he went back and scoffed at the first mouse and said it wasn't magic it was this big black cabinet that was producing the music.
Then the third mouse came along and not satasifed with what the first to mice found went to this big black cabinet and went in side when the music was playing to see row after row of tightly wound strings being struck by a series of small wooden hammers. He watch this process of hammers hitting strings for hours. Now full convinced he had found the absolute source of the music he went back and ridiculed the first two mice for their ignorance, and then went on to describe the inner workings of the piano in great detail.
Of the three which mouse had it 'right?'
None of them did. Even after the third mouse's complete observation of the inner workings of said piano he was not any closer to the source of the music than the other two. In the end the third mouse could only describe the mechanism use by the source of the music to produce it. 'Science' or rather the idea that 'science' disproves or removes God from how things work is that third mouse.
Great. Now change the pianist into an octet. Did you become a polytheist?
Now change the piano into a clockwork piano. Did you become a deist?
You begin your argument with 'god exists' to reach the conclusion that 'god exists'. It's utter nonsense and can be used to 'prove' any religion ever in existence. Stick to preaching, cos logic ain't for you.
Look, Dripsy. As long as I have to hear about this god from you, he's only getting less valid. Take a break and let his omnipotent ass make his case for himself, k?
Oh, right......
