No, I don't think that is any better than basing it on my goldfish, and
he/she is unpredictable (quantum effects perhaps.) But still, if all
which availed itself to me were my goldfish--I'd be damn temped to start
basing measurements on his/her activity!

At least your argument(s) cause one to think ...

You might look into finding a way for that activity to occur
spontaneously as well.

I am almost certain you posed that as a smart A$$ statement; however, I
have considered that ...

What you just stated, the bible does indeed state, on a few different
references (and NO, I DON'T know the bible scripture and verse--I am
Catholic grin I drink AND smoke.) One such reference goes to making
the point that all the names of the people to be "saved" are already
listed in the book of life ...

I think of this, like this, our universe is nothing more than a "burnt
cd", and we are just a translation of the data existing on that cd.
Much like watching a movie on cd ... who knows, maybe God enjoys this
movie ... just no accounting for taste.

Now I don't put a lot of probability in such--but hey, maybe you are
right ...
