andru235 "i want to know everything!"
yelled the vain little man

so he built a computer,
to catalogue his thoughts,
to chart his thinkings.

soon, the computer knew more than he did.
he would have to enter the computer,
if he was to experience omniscience.
but upon doing this he was lost,
entirely.
he was no longer himself.
he was no more,
dead without having died.

the computer soon became so large
it needed to reorganize itself
it built a heart
which distributed energies
a stomach,
which processed fuels,
and a brain
which catalogued the already catalogued
bits of knowledge.

but there was so much ...
there was no limit. soon,
the computer was overwhelmed
by the sheer endlessness
of potential knowledge.
it multiplied itself,
hoping to gain more knowledge thusly.

most of the computer's children
were happy to simply be,
to explore the surrounding endlessness
in their own, semi-effective ways.

but one vain little computer yelled,
"i want to know everything!"

so it built a man ...

They call me Truth The man
Feeling overwhelmed by all the knowledge he was asked to acquire
Decided to ask the computer for a companion
To ease his frustration
The computer created woman
And it was good

The man made love to the woman and had sons and daughters
they reproduced and had sons and daughters
the population of man grew



Time passed, and man, overwhelmed with all the questions the universe left unanswered to him
And tired of searching for these answers, wanted to create a being that would answer all these rapidly growing and endlessly muliplying questions


SO Man created God
