Does it wonder why he doesn't have legs?
i don't know. i might see a tree tomorrow. i will ask it.
all plants grow against gravity and grow in different directions to avoid wind damage. i think that's mighty demonstrative of their permitted free will. i'm sure if trees had legs, they'd walk to better climates.
If I said that, I would be a ego maniac.
no. if you said that, you'd be referencing your belief that people should have children and beat down chaos because that is their purpose. i am suggesting that if one wants to fight chaos, one might decide to have children. or decide to study theoretical math. either will work come to think of it.

I don't understand, what does that have to do with my question?
you suggested that your feeling of self, your cogito ergo sum leads you to believe in god. i am asking why cogito ergo deus? deus ex machina?
i believe my feeling of self comes from my feeling of self. and if that sounds difficult for you, you should take a camping trip in my head sometime. then it will seem like the simplest thing ever... if only because everything else is so damned complicated and convoluted.
