The idea that "no effect can be greater than its cause," is bullshit, and to prove that I present landslides, in which one small pebble can move and cause a huge deluge of rocks and destruction. I also present nuclear bombs, where the cause is the pushing of a button, and the effect is the destruction of a city. Effects, larger than causes.
I 'accidentally' poured petrol all around my neighbour's house and then rather stupidly dropped a match in it. Do you want to tell the police that the effect can't be greater than its cause or shall I, Randy?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
