Langton's Ant - a reminder for extremist Christians

[jossalv1]

How about a program that uses all the letters of the alphabet, and randomly puts

them together in chains of 2 thru 12 letter sequences.How long would it take to write

a phrase that is three words long, and that makes sense? It would not prove much though, as you would have to have a prior program, that uses curves and lines,

and that randomly puts them together to form letters.

F'ing A, what the heck is up with these SithLordRising and JDLupus morons? I'm a Christian (okay, a little agnostic too) and I still find this quite insightful.

[KintarosTiger]

@KintarosTiger ...looking back from a couple minutes ago, I do think I misinterpreted what JD said. Well, SLR is STILL a moron.

[JDLupus]

Would you like to be a warden buddy?

[ThatGuyFromAustria]

@JDLupus, what in all world is a "warden buddy"?

[JDLupus]

@ThatGuyFromAustria Just a buddy warden in Hell.

[ThatGuyFromAustria]

@JDLupus, ah, got it (been a while since I made this video, couldn't remember at first), well, depends. If I am to ward Christians, of course, otherwise I'd rather care about the life before death than that after.

God is the simple set of rules that you enter at the beginning of Langton's ant. God is the structure and meaning behind life and the universe.

Of course there is no bearded man sitting on a cloud judging you, God is within creation in the same way the simple formula entered into the beginning of this program is within the creation at the end.

That is the answer, God is simple but complex. Minuscule but enormous.

@thatguyfromfascistAustria You are a simple minded imbecile who has no understanding of the scientific method, thus are susceptible to dogma like Christianity and fascism. Your videos are consistently dimwitted. Are you a product of a terrible Austrian educational system or a self educated fool? Based on the rise of fascism in your Nazi loving country, I would guess it's the former. What's your educational background? FYI: In science, it's up to the theorist to provide empirical evidence.

[Archigearour]

Simple rules can bring about infinitely unpredictable observations.

[eismar5]

hhm, could you tell me what tool you used to program the ant ? ...because at the moment i try to do it for my own as a project during vacation :]

[ThatGuyFromAustria]

This is actually a python programme, using the pygame library. All you need is a python interpreter and the pygame-package, available on all systems. If you had read the annotation to the video, you even would have found the link ;-)
