I wonder what would happen if the IPU and FSM procreated? Maybe that's how universes are born?

It was so long ago... Anyway, the FSM could use His Noodly Appendage, so the visiblity issue is not crucial.

Sod's law from my perspective has always been the strange unknown nature of the unexpected natural event that is mostly unpredicable. We naturaly try to avoid bad situations often and at times let our guard down and expect certain events to take place as predicted. Sod's law is the opposite to our desire and predicted event. So the saying "expect the worst and hope for the best" comes into play. Accidently knocking off buttered toast will cause it to land buttered face down on the floor. It is the unexpected and unplaned natural event. Knocking it off yourself as if to simulate the accidental event will cause the buttered side to land face up. (As I've been told) And so sod's law is acting on the opposite side of your planed/predicted event. Expecting the worst to take place is suppost to cause sod's law to play on and work on your favour. I don't believe in it mind you, I'm just going by knowledge. Sod's law is the strange and unknown natural event that supposedly works on the opposite side of your intentions and any prediction you may have. To give a small example, when you intend to say knock something off, it doesn't. When you accidently move your arm and you knock it off...(same object)...that's sod's law. The opposite action to your intentions. Simple really but it hasn't anything to do with anything spiritual. Just an unknown natural thing. This is something you either believe or do don't thing. I don't so that you know, but at times in the past I have thought about it.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity. Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist. You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
I don't believe it because it's as nonsensical as a philosophy wishful thinking in and of itself!
 It's like a 'pessimistic' version of "The Secret"/"The Law of Attraction", etc., I guess. EvF (November 30, 2009 at 11:14 am)EvidenceVsFaith Wrote: I don't believe it because it's as nonsensical as a philosophy wishful thinking in and of itself! I agree. Silly stuff but interesting though.

It was. I got bored of it and now consider it paltry, lol.

The Secret is one of the things that pisses me off the most of all the metaphysical claims. I'm willing to bet the direct change in situation attributable to the secret is the negative impact of money leaving ones wallet to buy it in the first place.
