Ray-mundo,
I like turtles all the way down (although I think it works better with tortoises). People argue over if there is a God or not. Of course there is/was a God. Whoever kicked this whole thing off is God. At some point in not time, he poked a hole in eternity, blew out a bubble of space, and added in a drop of his essence, which spread out into space like oil on water, with pretty pony rainbows everywhere. That may have been a universe, not necessarily this universe, but as nature seems big on replicating itself...
"There is cause and effect, right?"
"Sure."
"So way, way back, there must have been a first cause?"
"OK"
"So where is it?"
"What?"
"The first cause!"
"Oh, that's in my laundry basket. It says dry clean only on it, but I wanted to see what would happen if I dumped in the wash and dry. I was just curious."
"Damn, I thought I had programed that out."
"Well your curious, and everything is created from your essence, so..."
"Well I can toot Dixie in four part harmony out my ass."
"Point taken."
I'm barque because I have no Monet, just this worthless invitation to something that's already happen, and I don't do scrap-booking. Everybody sing, "hey bungalow Bill, what did you kill ... (ellipsis for Ray, a drop of golden sun. Golden Showers fill my tub, so just scrub a dub. The question is not what is the speed of light, the question is, what is the speed of space, inside a train moving away from you at 100mph? "Say goodnight George". "I'm not George, I'm Nat." "Not right now you're not." Goodnight George! Golden Slumbers Nat.

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
