A story about a paranoid fish: You build
a huge fish tank and fill it with water and
gravel. Next you place a little blue fish into
one end of the tank and a hungry shark into
other. Swimming slowly towards the shark's end
of the fish tank, the little blue fish speaks
to you. The fish explains that it is blind,
but you know that already. You know everything.
You know everything the fish will say, after
all, you made the fish and you
made all his thoughts, speech and actions. The
little blue fish becomes paranoid and repeatedly
begs you to protect him from predators.
The water behind the fish is the its past and
the water the fish is swimming into is its future.
You can see all the contents of
the tank simultaneously and so you
can see the fish's past and future at the same
time. No matter what the fish says, the fish
will be the shark's next meal. After all your
intention is to feed the shark.
The fish's paranoia is justified. When he arrives
at the other end of the tank, the hungry shark
is very pleased indeed to make his acquaintance.
**Sssssssswwwwwwwwooooooooosss
sssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh! CCCCHHHRRRUUUNNNNCCCCCHHHH!**
The paranoid fish is no more. You are a timeless
God. You planned it all in advance.
If there is an All Knowing and
All Powerful God, (and I doubt it) then don't
bother praying to Him. You are just a little
fish swimming with His sharks.
