Isaac Asimov is as dead as a doornail and Michael Moore is fat. I guess dust and blubber have slightly different atomic makeups, but what sense does it make to praise or blame physical forces for anything, or to assume that matter in motion causing whatever it causes is either wise or foolish? Is the moon foolish or wise for its orbit around the earth? How can an impersonal, physical process of chance/necessity like evolution produce something contrary, or wrong, or foolish to itself?

What are you comparing the universe to in order to say that there's something wrong with it?

Cordially,

The process of natural selection.

How can nothing produce God?
