The reason god doesn't exist

[Munchkin Goddess]

I hope you mean that you get the reference to Battlestar Galactica but not how it applies to you... or maybe you're just not a sci-fi person.

Ohhhhh, I am a sci-fi person. I actually only recently started watching the miniseries my friend lent me a few days ago. It was sometime after I posted this that I got to watch the series.

When you get to the bits where Cylons start talking about god you'll get my reference.  That's not really a spoiler btw.

Ellie, I love it!

I just completed my MA in philosophy (I graduated yesterday), and this is from a list of grad students jokes I got in an email once:

Why God Doesn't Have a PhD
   1. He had only one major publication.
   2. It was in Hebrew.
   3. It had no references.
   4. It wasn't published in a refereed journal.
   5. Some even doubt he wrote it by himself.
   6. It may be true that he created the world, but what has he done since then?
   7. His cooperative efforts have been quite limited.
   8. The scientific community has had a hard time replicating his results.
   9. He never applied to the ethics board for permission to use human subjects.
  10. When one experiment went awry he tried to cover it by drowning his subjects.
  11. When subjects didn't behave as predicted, he deleted them from the sample.
  12. He rarely came to class, just told students to read the book.
  13. Some say he had his son teach the class.
  14. He expelled his first two students for learning.
  15. Although there were only 10 requirements, most of his students failed his tests.
  16. His office hours were infrequent and usually held on a mountain top.
  17. No record of working well with colleagues.
