The Argument From Design

The Poor Man sees the hand of Divine Providence at work in the "Jeff Gannon" [link NSFW] story:

Think about it: what are the chances that a media whore like Gannon would turn out to be an actual whore? It's impossible. It boggles the mind how infinitely unlikely this is. It's like if you found someone pirating CDs, and it turns out he actually had a peg leg and a parrot on his shoulder and sailed around the Caribbean saying "arrrrrr!" and plundering booty. You wouldn't believe it. But there it is: impossible, but true. Impossible truths are miracles, and only God can work miracles. Ergo, God exists. Q.E.D.

Un-fuckin-believable. I can't believe I read the whole thing...laughing hysterically. Are we sure, sure, that this is truly Jeff Gannon? Oh I do hope so. What a wonderful story. Thanks, Alan.
