Hi, everyone. I've been hanging around for a while, having a good read of 
the posts. Very interesting. I am now intrigued and just had to ask Dave 
in Lake Villa: What is the 'not an accident' that the poster to whom you 
are replying possesses? This 'not an accident' seems to be something that 
'He' doesn't make. However, if I am correct, the 'He' to which you refer 
seems to be a supreme being, a being that, you believe, is responsible 
for everything in the universe. If so, then surely you believe that 'He' 
must have made this 'not an accident'. I must admit to being confused by 
your meaning.

It's just that I understood this to be a philosophy of atheism newsgroup 
and I like to be sure that I understand the content of every message. 
It's important to be precise when communicating, don't you think?

Best regards.
