Yep. I can't say how much of it was natural versus how much may
have been engineered though. "Don't look over here. There is
nothing to see but loonies. We aren't really trying to control
the world. There is no we." :-)

Well, it allows them to "explain" everything and see themselves

far out enough to avoid possible falsification. It will
probably evolve into a full-fledged religion. It is already
well on the way to becoming a cult.
