What's more far fetched? A quark exists by of an accident or quark exists because there is a power beyond our comprehension?
damnit Boston, enough with the false dichotomy. and the obsession with everything being "by" something else. you're so fixated on everything being "by" something else. and you think that you've narrowed it down to God or accident, and it's obvious that there wasn't some "whoopsie" that somehow built a universe. so God.
not long ago we were swinging in the trees, grunting and screeching at each-other. we come down and eventually started talking and our vocabulary has been added to to handle all the things we do. like, get food, court females, dispose of s**t and whatever else we needed language to do. is it in you to comprehend that this vocabulary and the logic we invented just isn't enough to cover all of existence and whatever else existence is? is it in you to accept that your tired, two-choice "god or accident" question may not cut it? that our blunt tools and our smart, monkey-speak just won't get you anywhere? that perhaps we just don't have words and concepts to explain what this existence is?
You could start humanity a zillion billion times and at any point along its evolution journey and you would still have have the God question.
we may be like dogs and go through an evolutionary stage where we eat our own s**t and publicly try to hump each-other, but you'd hope we'd grow out of these stages.
If someone says they saw a ghost? What are you going to do? Call them a liar?
no, write about it 50-80 years afterwards and start a religion. accounts of the ghost MUST differ though. if we record the story exactly the same in each gosp... i mean chronicle, then everybody will think we just copied each-other. so the accounts must differ on who saw the ghost, how many ghosts there were and what the ghosts said.
