 I'll tell you how it can be.   It can be for the same
reason you seem to overflow with wisdom without
being the least aware of the nature of even the
physical world around you.    Er, out of the billions
of stars in this galaxy alone, name the five stars
nearest earth and tell me how many planets each
one has.   You can't do it, Geno.   Maybe one-tenth
of one-percent  of the populartion of this planet can
name the five  nearest stars (out of many billions,
remember) but  no one knows at  this time how many
planets surround those stars.   You are sitting here
smugly on the outskirts of the Milky Way--okay, point
to the center.  NOW!.   You don't have a clue, do you?
And you have no clue about the nature of the  center
either.  So exactly how is it that retarded denizens of a
hick planet are going to be able to answer profound
questions regarding the meaning of life, love, etc.?
They aren't, Geno.   All they can do is masticate their
gums the way you and Gaiawar are doing.
