From magidin@uclink.berkeley.edu Subject: Red Iguana Noon:Wrath of Knowledgius, Chapter 11 Date: 17 Apr 1994 21:48:22 GMT Message-ID: <2osar6$4l3@agate.berkeley.edu>[During our last episode, Arch-Atheist Stacy Prowell's head had an unfortunate encounter with Mr. Wrench and he is now safely asleep. In the meantime, Angela Dyer has taken control of the WACSDAAG forces surrounding the Pube Fort and has convinced the Eternal Sidekick Ferret Boy to come out and parlay with her.]

I think I better stay here and protect the Red Iguana. You know, it could be that the atheists are setting a trap for him. Also I was hired to look after him, remember? |
Tim: |
You know, this Red Shirt is getting a bit tight. Do you mind, O Mighty Eater of the Paradox Sandwich, if I go if I go and change into something a little more comfortable? |
Tim: | Thanks! Be right back. |
Tim: | Knowledgius, are you there? |
Tim: | Huh? |
Tim: |
Oh, OK. Anyway, Mission Accomplished. Ferret Boy is gone and Publius is now in his office alone. I also broke the Mozumderizer Mark II, and took all of the Anti-Nomologizers from the office so he is defenseless. He is Yours. |
Tim: |
Can I get out of this Nameless Red Shirt uniform now? |
Tim: | Well, I have you now! |
Tim: | I said "We have you now!". |
Tim: |
I think my shirt blinded him. Also, it could have affected his hearing. It ->is<- somewhat loud, isn't it? |
Tim: |
Ha! I never dreamed it would be that easy. Then again, I also thought you promised me some wanton destruction? |
Tim: |
Worship? You? But I'm an atheist! I don't worship anything! Except a good pizza, of course. |

Damn! He must still be a bit hard of hearing. Let me get a bit closer to him. [Tim walks to the Logical Thought cage and shouts] HE, ehr, SHE, eehr, well KNOWLEDGIUS TOLD ME THAT IF I WANT TO DO SOME DESTRUCTION I NEED TO WORSHIP HIM, eehr, HER, WELL, ->IT<-. |
Knowledgius: Now, that is not fair! I don't tell you how to play your Game of the Gods, you shouldn't tell my atheists what to do. Remeber, they are Autonomous Men and they can think for themselves.> As an Atheist, you believe in the Atheist 'God' > but it would be absurd for you to worship him.
Tim: |
Good, but you did have to put that extra space after the period. I would say that it needs a little more work. |
Tim: |
[to Publius] As for you, Red Lizard, you are Wrong! As an Atheist, I do not believe in any God. I onlY believe In Pizza and Loud Hawaiian ShiRts. |
Knowledgius: What? Me, believe in a Living God? But I am a God! And I'm alive! I'm alive! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA! No, the question is, what should I do with my enemies? Those that annoy Me? What should I do with Publius, the Red Iguana?> If you believe in a 'Living God' you should > honor Him by living a Life worthy of His > act of Creation
Knowledgius: Well, of course not. I'm not about to start worshipping ->you<-. On the other hand, if there is one thing about you worthy of worship it's your ego. I daresay if you climbed to the top of it you could commit suicide by jumping. Now, my little pet. Who am I going to destroy?> - but not worship him as > though it was good for His Ego.
Knowledgius: You know? That's the first thing you've said that makes any sense.> PUBLIUS >
