Thanks for the dismissal. Care to elucidate?
And I don't think anyone is going to fall for the Red Scare. That time is
over. Labelling something as "Marx" doesn't automatically make it evil in
anyone's eyes but yours.

OK, so why are you here?

How is that a paradox or false? It's a sentence fragment.
There are several sets of guidelines said to be handed down from one
supposed Creator or another. This is not a paradox. It would be a
paradox (or at least a very convoluted puzzle) to claim that all of those
Creators were actually responsible for each creating the same thing. I
didn't make that claim.

I'm glad you know of at least one. I can think of several.
Really, I'm just looking for a counter-example. I don't know that one
exists.
In other words, creating a better place for all living things is one of
the reasons we are here, according to every religious doctrine that claims
to answer that question. You claimed that we are NOT here for that
purpose (see above where you pronounce "False"). This implies, to me,
that you do not believe in any such religious doctrine. I don't have a
problem with that. But I do have to ask:
Why do you think you're here?
