I had to google that - and although complex mathematically it sounded like gnostic religion. Are you a gnostic Mark?

It may surprise you, but I'm not religious and don't really believe in a God...the closest thing to God that I believe in is perhaps a collective consciousness, but that's not even close to what you're asking.

Yeah you're a gnostic!!! You believe you have insight - more so than the rest of us?
From the minutiae to the universal - when the sun sets we cannot know.
Although we can kick against it, we're all in the same boat.
