A new book makes a compelling scientific case for why we find ourselves alone in the universe. In doing so, it succeeds in making the theologians' point. Of course William of Ockham was a priest as befits someone whose razor can now be used with great confidence to spell God.
Which judging by the intergalactic level of bloodthirstiness that Yahweh, Allah and Jesus testify to in their holy books, is a catastrophe for billions, nay tens of billions of souls. Hopefully this God guy is wildly different than his sales brochuresclaim. Because if He isn't then He's the horror of the universe and for many of us there truly is a fate worse than death.
Which makes it ironic that the most common word uttered by His sales team is "love". I guess "love" stands for a particularly fiendish form of cruelty.
