 No harm in that.

Except for when, one day, you read the press headlines: "God's word found in Human DNA". They will never bother to tell you that given all the free variables (encoding, number of verses, etc) and the continuous moving-the-goalposts, the odds suddenly became favourable for god (Inc.).

I can happily co-exist with your citations. After all science is an anarchistic enterprise. !But! there must be some rules in conducting experiments and assessing their outcomes when we share knowledge, else we are all blind.

Otherwise,

no harm in that

    42 and "no harm in that" gosh are we all living in the hitchhiker's guide. Now here is a God and His Word comes in most forums.

      The answer to everything…?!

      perl -le 'print chr(42)'

      All right. That checks out.
