yes mike..i know your meaning..however you refuse point blank to see mine.. why?..merle Merle,
The meaning of 'painting legs on a snake' indicates the pointlessness of giving something it doesn't need and can do without. It has nothing to do with 'having fun'. My original point still stands that the universe works perfectly well without giving it imaginary fairy-stories as to how it works. Mike Sent from Yahoo!

The universe works just fine without such a belief. Why paint legs on a snake? Mike Sent from Yahoo!

Watched it. Yep, no god. Sent from Yahoo!
