For all of you who do not believe in a higher power, I pose this question.

How do you explain the lusciousness that is the pepperoni pizza roll? There is no way a mere mortal could have created such saliva inducing delight.

I await your replies. Maybe I should post this in R/T?

2. It's all random molecules.
Don't delude yourself into thinking a higher power is responsible.

10. I don't think you necessarily need to invoke a higher power
Considering that human ingenuity has produced the Sistine Chapel, supersonic aircraft, and the music of Mozart, and further considering that there are 6.5 billion of us, it's not beyond reason that there could be at least one human who, on a very good day, could rise to the level of genius needed to invent the PPR (although I admit, divine intervention is the more likely explanation...)

and do not eat meat, I can't explain it.

13. Okay, explain this.
The cheese pizza roll. A man made invention? I think not.

As for your question, I'm afraid I can't help you since I'm a vegetarian atheist :shrug:

16. Or just pizza in general.
Surely one does not speculate that this is the 'fractal' of the spiritual world?

20. Or the torque wrench?
I mean, the torque wrench is absolute, undeniable proof of the existence of God and His abounding love for us.

28. I sort of feel that way about remote control garage doors, too.
To me, it's proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.



:rofl:

Seriously, I love that damned thing. I can take the 10yo to school in my pajamas in the rain and no one is the wiser.

24. I think it's proof that there isn't a God.
If there was a God he'd be telling us we couldn't eat it.

26. Help me just get one thing straight here, Midlo.
You find evidence of the divine in a suspicious foodlike substance one can purchase at most major gas stations? Yours is a weak god, my friend. :hug:

Huh? Well, have you? No human could concoct such a delicacy.

29. Only an omnipresent and omnipotent God could make such great flavor in such a suspicious place!
Edited on Wed Dec-13-06 03:28 PM by JVS
Just as the king of kings was born in a manger, so the taste of tastes was sent into a Pizza Roll.

30. How eloquently you put that, JVS.
The pizza roll, especially the pepperoni variety is a delight to all the senses and should be worshipped, not scorned.
