Well at least art is the attempt at imitating god. I guess you could say art is when logic is at a loss for words and something else like emotion is left to interpret things.

Sure, you can make statements like God is that guy mentioned in the bible but that doesn't really say anything definitive about god it only says things that people think about god. The real god if there is one may not be that guy mentioned in the bible. Basically your guess is as good as mine. So that's why using math is as silly as throwing poop. Niether one of them will define god unless you decide that's what you want god to be. So one person might say god is E=mc2 and another might say god is poop art. Whose to say which definition's closer.

Divine as in beyond our ability to form a definition within our own logic. Anything we come up with mathematically will only explain a god that's bound by mathematics. Far short of divine by this definition.

If you except Fred Ott as an actor then you have to except The Sneeze. With that part approved let's proceed. You must allow Edison in as a factor in the linkage as Ott appeared alone in the films he did. With that said, here's what I got: 1.Ott to Edison in The Sneeze 2.Edison to Bronco Billy Anderson in The Great Train Robbery 3.Anderson to Chaplin in The Champ 4.Chaplin to Sophia Loren in The Countess of Hong Kong 5.Sophia Loren to William Devane in La Mortadella 6.Devane to Bacon in Hollow Man

OK now for one of the one's considered unlinkable. Fred Ott. (hint)-Fred Ott was a lab technician for Thomas Edison.

Damn good. I had: 1.Bacon w/Gary Oldman in JFK 2. Oldman w/Monica Bellucci in Dracula 3. Bellucci w/Agent Smith guy in The Matrix trilogy 4. Agent Smith guy in Lord of the Rings Directed by Peter Jackson 5. Peter Jackson directed King Kong.

I believe trying to describe the devine with math is like trying to paint a perfect replica of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel using monkeys throwing poop at it. Actually I think monkeys throwing poop would be a lot more fun to watch. If she can make it beautiful then she's one hell of a poop slinger.

Besides if any Greek philosopher is going to make it into a Christain heaven it's Plato.

I agree. At least for now.

I have an automatic delete button in my brain. If I don't use a certain tid bit of knowledge within a certain amount of time it gets deleted from my memory banks. It's a wonderful thing to have an unclustered mind.

That's your downfall with her. You still hold out hope that you can change her mind with scientific logic. If you ever did sway her opinion it wouldn't be fun anymore would it?
Re: a comment on We Do Not Write About by faithmairee	13-Mar-06/10:17 AM
Oh, see now I totally understand.

He was once a master at playing "6 degrees of Kevin Bacon" I'm guessing.

That one was just a novella compared to some of the marathons we've had.
Re: a comment on Numbers In Heaven by Dovina	13-Mar-06/10:09 AM
Yep, but for some reason I'm still trying to get her to be practical with numbers.

"There was a young man from Trinity, Who solved the square root of infinity. While counting the digits, He was seized by the fidgets, Dropped science, and took up divinity."
