> dhw: I still find it impossible to conceive how intelligent energy could have had any information at all about the behaviour of matter before matter even existed. -Because the inventor knows what he is creating
 
> dhw:The possibility that first cause energy was a potential rather than an actual intelligence is therefore bolstered by your acceptance that your God may have had to experiment in at least one area of his activity.-These are your conjured up possibilities, not mine.
> 
> Dhw: I have complete respect for your FAITH, but I don't like your insistence that your own illogical hypothesis (which you prefer to gently call "counterintuitive") is more logical than any other illogical hypothesis. I have said repeatedly that NONE of these hypotheses are logical, because they all come up against the brick wall of inexplicable life and consciousness. Hence agnosticism.-Hence the need for faith.
