So I'm back in Atlanta, and I think these next few days are going to be busy indeed... compilers is due on *shudder* Thursday, and I need to get stuff done for research Really Soon, and I need to get going on that dad-blammed NLU project (but that's going to be really cool, actually -- we're totally going to do machine learning techniques and train our agent on Atlanta Latino so's it can do automated translation...)... and ...

"It's not where you come from -- it's go and go get it."
-- The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, "Where You Come From"

I feel good. I'm ready to get down to business.

And I think it turns out that my mother

dramamamalama is more tolerant than I am -- particularly when it comes to people whom I view as having destructively smallminded and Patently Wrong viewpoints -- but that might just mean that I'm 22 and more than a bit paranoid. This came up when we were discussing her new job, which is helping out with the music department at the local Baptist church...

I think the thing about ... eh, anything ... relating to God as an omnipotent being is that anything goes and is a valid[0] belief because in the base belief in one (das uber being) is almost[1] completely inane and unsupported by any scientific evidence (the _lack_ of evidence or understanding should not be taken as 'proof' of any sort that one exists) [2][3]

[0] to someone

[1] i would strike the almost but maybe somewhere out there there's a shred of scientific proof of God, I make no claim to know

[2] Alex, quit reading live journal... that should be left to those of us that have nothing better to do with our lives than rant on inane things

[3] I'm listening to The Music That Died Alone by The Tangent and it's wonderful, and I want that everyone should know this
