I was thinking today, Google tracks our location and that's pretty god-like.

Maybe computers will get ever more intelligent, eventually liberating themselves from the earthly restraints of electronics and becoming gods. Mankind, thanks to his daft socialist ideals, sinks back into the primordial soup. Then time, (which is circular obviously) brings about another big bang and destroys all evidence of the previous existence. Mankind starts to evolve again and is aided by Google (the name now corrupted to God). Microsoft Windows is the devil obviously, and tries to lure man from the path of righteousness.

Pretty good theory I reckon, anyone want to join my church?

The universe is a giant computer. When you die god restores you from a backup and tortures you. That's hell that is.

I agree with the part about instilling morality, more importantly religion is the root of many important and exciting traditions such as Father Christmas and the chocolate egg provided by the Easter bunny.

The computers will be socialists.

Got send home after day 6 though, invoking the MOO clause......

Surely he didn't invoke MOO for another 4000 years?

I've favourited this thread

...so that whenever I like, I can relive what it was like in my 1st year at uni, sitting in a circle on the floor at 3:30 am.

I'd love to stay, but the steam from Annabel's dragon noodles is about to detach Giles's Bob Marley poster from the wall unless I give it a wipe down with that Green Day t-shirt.
