Anyway this discussion about god does lead us nowhere.
One day we all see (or not) if it exists.
I'm just a little bit afraid of religion - not because of the gods but because of what the humans use 'em for.
I was raised with the stories of Jesus Christ - and it doesn't matter if those stories where made up or even if there's a god or not - they just show a good example of living in peace with each other. Why can't christianity be about that?

And think to your radio bell.
When I press the alarm button for a short time it displays the alarm time - if I press it for a long time I can adjust the time.

And don't forget Konrad Zuse.
I, for one, shall greet our new 'female geek' overlords.
