Yes, and Eugenics was the Logical Positivist Rational Science
   modern human sacrifice-for-a-cause. Looking for bad examples is
   simple and poor form. Just there you stretched back to a story
   in a book and reached forward to a specific example in a small
   place that is, by the way, a cult that is not mainstream. A
   little more intellectual integrity would be nice, honestly.
   Can't seem to escape hyperbole. == I have no idea what systems
   or processes created life for certain. I *suspect* it's a
   complicated process over a long period of time, maybe a few
   magical lightning strikes and mysterious chemical soup forming
   inside of triangular crystaline structures warmed up by the UV
   of the sun on the younger Earth which eventually took the amino
   acids that came down from comets in the sky to form life. Want a
   scientific answer for life? Take yer pick. Many competing
   theories. I'm agnostic. _I don't know_. But I suspect there was
   some wonky process involved. I believe that the elements that
   make us up were formed when a protostar (the light before light)
   exploded and hit a giant molecular gas cloud which formed the
   heavier elements, coalesced together first by static electricity
   then by gravity and spiraling over a long period of time,
   eventually ended up with the sun, earth, and after a long time
   cooking on this planet, us. That's where I'm at. When it comes
   to God type stuff? I have no idea.
