I donno what I believe but I think I believe in some sort of god, it's not proposperious.
I've made forums and websites that comunities have grown up in. I didn't create the content, I didn't create every post, I just created the facility for poeple to post messages. Let's say God created the planet, let's say he set up things, and things grew organicly. The 60s and 70s happened when they did because we were at the right point of evolution and development for that to happen, we were at the right level of understanding to create the invenetions that happened in that timezone. Incidently, it'll be fucking cool to have technology today of the year 2090s, but time will have to be patient, for us to reach that point we have to go throug hte 2080s and 2070s (etc) and have those developments... you can skip forward on an infinate-page-size book, but you won't understand all the characters.... The Matrix 3 would make no sense without the first two.

Maybe God did exist and is no longer about, maybe he died, maybe he stopped caring ? Maybe he's buggered off creating other realities? Rob and Cal don't check in on this place all the time.

There is room for a belief in God _and_ science.

How comes _every_ single culture, throughout history, cultures that have and no connection to each other what so ever, no possible way to link to each other, Myans and Mongolians, Azteks and Aborigionaies, how comes every single one of them reference some kind of god? How did they all get the same idea, draw the same conclusion, and yet no possible way of linking them?

I generally put it down to a fear of death.

And ignorance of science.

No, not at all. Plenty of scientests who are respected as what we currently regard as 'fact' believe in some part of religion.
Science, "the persuite for absolute truth", does not neglate the existanse of god.

Yeah', that's part of it, or maybe not fear of death, but fear of the thought that your loved one's are going to end up decomposed coprses who are literally bug food...
...that the person who wiped your bum as you grew up and molded you into the person you are today, will end up like that.
