My belief in intelligent design

[paulhope]

So I do believe in some intelligent design, despite my knowing fully that such things are ridiculous. When my life seems twisted by so much irony-laden circumstance, and strange patterns inexplicably repeat themselves in my life, I explain them to myself by attributing them to the work of some Divine Prankster pulling the strings, artfully teasing and tripping me up either as punishment for my blasphemies or to add tension and dramatic themes to my life story, so as to make one of His thousands of masterpieces of creation.

Still having some trouble readjusting to life here. I really have no idea what's in store for me this year.
