	While thinking about cause and effect, I pictured the universe to 
 be a vastly complicated chain of causes and effects done over a 
 (relatively) large amount of time, leading up to the present.  Then I 
 imagined that time itself could have originally been just a cause, which 
 at one point "happened" and gave birth to the possibility of other 
 "happenings," which occurred at each moment after the birth of time. 

        I realized at that point what the nature of these "happenings" 
 were. When time "happened," it was not merely activated; what "happened" 
 was that time began to reproduce.  After this happened, time formed a 
 (relatively) slow string of moments, which eventually reproduced on 
 themselves to form a constant stream of time.  I conjecture that it was 
 in the very first of these moments, the second moment in the history of 
 time, that matter "happened," or I should say, began to reproduce. 

	It is natural, then, for animate matter, when it began existing, 
 to exist with the sole purpose of copying itself.  And when there was 
 enough of it, animate matter learned to carry on symbiotic relationships 
 with other animate matter.  Eventually, entire societies of animate 
 matter copied themselves over and over and over again, each time learning 
 more how to coexist with other life forms, and then forming societies of 
 their own, which copied themselves.  Life continues to expand, infinitely 
 increasing the space it occupies, as the space it does not occupy is 
 expanding infinitely. 

         I insist that this knowledge is essential for any understanding 
 of anything.  The preceding facts can be used to draw any just conclusion 
 about anything.  For example, it is an undeniable truth that no man or 
 thing could ever be held as guilty for any other thing or man.  The 
 perceived existence of right and wrong is obviously a common 
 misinterpretation of pleasure and pain.  Therefore, a violent criminal is 
 no guiltier than a violent disease or a violent snowstorm.  If there were 
 any logic in the world, all forms of punishment would come to an end 
 immediately.  This is an informed and absolute truth. 

	Then again, if there were any logic in the world, all forms of 
 logic would come to an end immediately.  But there isn't any, is there?   
 The end.
