And I'll leave you with a long argument by Douglas Adams ;)
"One celebratfamous quotes funny quotesed argument that Adams put forward on the subject of religion is that of the sentient puddle: refuting the suggestion that the existence of God and his love for us is proved by the fact that the world is perfectly designed for our needs, he compared such thinkers to an intelligent puddle of water. Pleased with itself and certain that the hole in the ground it occupies must have been designed specifically for it, since it fits so well in it, the puddle looks up to the sun above and worships its divine benefactor. The fate of the puddle, of course, is to exist happily under the sun until it has entirely evaporated."

It just took a whole new meaning for me. I read that quote at the beginning of this book called "In the House of the Spirits" By Isabell Alande. Once I was finished reading the book, I reread that quote and it just took on a meaning I just cannot explain. I am always suggesting people read this book, but please don't watch the movie, the book is so much better and the quote loses its meaning if you watch the movie. Book is better.
