Hi Andrie, Yes, you may be correct, coherence is not one of my strong points. I also do not wish to discuss religion, and only bring it up as a foil to your use of science. I am more than happy to discuss based on logic. Just don't use physics as if it really proves something in metaphysics. Too many people are falling into that trap. Physics is a useful tool for communicating ideas, but it is an idea in itself.
By the way, I take it you are from Holland. I went to elementary school in The Hague for four years. This was many years ago so my once semi-fluent Dutch has faded. My father is Dutch and I have fond memories of the Dutch people. Hope you guys are still as friendly and sensible as I remember.
