Ras,

No, not yet. I`ve tried some magazines, but no luck. I`ve created an ebook for my Palm; self-publishing is so easy now :-) I don`t know how many people like to read stuff on their PDAs though? I still can`t bring myself to pay $24+ for an e-book! But I`ll keep trying; if any breakthroughs I`ll be sure to let this forum know. If you have any leads for me, I`m all ears!

Neuromancer,

No, I wasn`t planning on that. I prefer not to speculate on whether or not God is alive. What would I know about it anyway?

Moulabux,

I am indeed a lunatic. Have a nice day :-)

JohnGalt, Sekai,

Since you asked so nicely, I will endeavour to produce a continuation. No guarantees it will be published of course, but we can hope.

Ansari,

It seems my choice of an ending is not satisfactory to most readers. So I`ll keep digging and see if I can satisfy. Or at least entertain along the way :-)

Quinton,

have you tried getting your stories published in book form?

Ras

Will this turn into a religious allegory, Quint?

Man has forsaken the Word and sought salvation in the soothsayings of Science? What man is this? A disgruntled professor, the supposed emblem of logic and reason? If Science is our new and improved religion, is our professor friend a prophet, the little alien Gabriel, and his paper is to be our Code?

Nietzsche was wrong. God isn`t dead. Not yet, anyway.

Maybe Quinton Zondervan himself is the lunatic discussed above.

Cheers.

Enjoyed reading the article.

Is there a punchline? Another installment?
