I'm not attempting to rule any world. Even if I were, I would probably try to be armed with more than just an italicised word.

AKA: What are you talking about?

As I explained on AIM, you can't explain the existence or nature of the universe any more than an agnostic. But neither of us needs this knowledge to reason about the theories on offer, and reject the more bloated amongst them.

I think it's far less logical that chaos rules the universe
And I think you're a victim of theological spintalk. A universe doesn't need to be chaotic in order to be godless, although that's certainly an option. In any case, it's not enough to simply declare an opinion. Are you willing to back it up?
