Categories or Degrees of Existence (Agnosticism)

George has referred us to an article in which a senior policeman attributes reductions in accident rates and an increase in detection rates partly to the power of prayer. George asks if we would accept it as evidence.-This is a great idea. We can solve our national debt crisis at a single stroke. We'll get rid of the police force, health service, social welfare and armed forces, and hand control to the mighty monks at the Monastery of St Miraculoso.-My thanks to George for a fun post ... or it would be if Inspector Bartlett didn't expect to be taken seriously. Let's all pray to win the lottery, and when we don't, we can write and tell him we've proved God doesn't exist.-This could also be an exciting new game. We can call it TESTING CREDULITY. My turn now: how many chimpanzees with unlimited brushes and paints do you reckon it would take to produce Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel?
