It's rather like democracy - it's not a perfect system, but it's the best we humans can manage.
Precisely why an inhuman process is the only thing capable of changing us.
"When humans should have become as perfect in voluntary obedience as the inanimate creation is in its lifeless obedience, then they will put on its glory, or rather that greater glory of which Nature is only the first sketch."
(C.S. Lewis The Weight of Glory)

As per Jar's admonishment, perhaps the best place for this discussion is in Angalard's thread which is on topic.

Re: Sorry to bug you, but...
Never heard of him.
Who do you mean?
I respect a skeptic, even a smug one. It is the cynic who is in danger of suicide.
