Lyle's Book? If this were true it would likely be an exaggerated and unexpurgated version of the 2nd coming by one's own hand!! ;o)) |

The simple answer is that it is all way beyond our futile aspirations to make some meaning to what is meaningless. As I always told my children, there are no answers so don't ask the questions. Make the most of what there is and what we think we know. Beyond that anything is possible, but sadly not very likely! As John Williams can confirm, I have dwelt on this problem probably more than most; it doesn't help one little bit. |
