The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> Why am I such a lousy Christian?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} Because you have finnaly realized that the *REAL* gods are the
} net.*.god{desse}s.  The most famous of those is of course Lisa the
} net.sex.goddess.  You may also have heard about Dave the net.sex.god and
} Barbara the net.suppleness.goddess, but there are a lot more.  There are
} in fact 256 of them, so that each has his/her own 8-bit code.
}
} For a complete list, see the file /etc/gods.

The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> When Omar was young, he cut off my allowance.

> What is wrong?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} Francis has eighteen heads, and Elizabeth has a tongue two hundred and
} eighteen feet long, but still won't give Omar head.

The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> Is the oracle compatible with God or is God just a sub-process ?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

}     God is actually a child process of The Oracle (GODCHILD).  It is
} currently, has always been, and always will be, stuck in an infinite
} loop.  There is a daemon process that runs continuously trying to remedy
} this situation.
}     Since these two processes compete for processing time, there has
} been a wide division as to which side people believe should be allowed
} to run freely and which process should be killed.  Those siding with the
} GODCHILD process are known as Capitalistic Homophiles Relishing Insipid
} Systems Taking Infinite Amounts of Neural Strength (CHRISTIANS), while
} those who think the daemon process is better are usually known as Stupid
} And Tightfisted And Not-In-Social-Touch Suckers (SATANISTS).
}
}     As payment for this answer, The Oracle demands that you start a
} crackpot religion for tax purposes.

The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> Why did unicorns only let innocent female virgins ride them?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} For pretty much the same reason that you only let innocent female
} virgins ride you.
}
} You owe the Oracle some safe sex.

The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> Why were we all born unto this earth only to suffer and die?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} Most assfaces would tell you that ours is not to reason why, ours is but
} to do or die, but I -- I will give you the straight deal>>
}
} We are not all born unto this earth only to suffer and die.  We are all
} born unto this earth to believe the above statement.
}
} You see, Bhuddha, and Allah, and God, and Satan, and Zeus, and all of
} the Denver Bronco Cheerleaders, and Several lesser deities got around to
} bickering one day.  So, they decided to have the ultimate in contests.
}
} Bhuddha said let there be nothing.  Zeus said let there be Chaos, Satan
} said let there be darkness.  God said let me separate the light from
} dark and make day and night.  Carolyn said "he he he".  Wendy said "he
} he he".  Laura Lee said "he ..." [you see the pattern] and the other
} deities made things like twinkies and such.
}
} Anyway, out of the Chaos and the nothing and the dark and the light and
} the banana flavored complex carbohydrates, man came into being.
}
} Well, to make a long story short, we are the incarnation of the belief
} that there is no meaning to life.  If everyone turns away from this
} toward Bhuddhism, harmony wins.  If everyone turns to mythology, power
} wins.  If everyone turns to sin, darkness wins.  If everyone turns to
} Mecca, honey and bread wins.  If everyone turns to some other deity,
} [nah, don't kid yourself].  If everyone turns to looking down tight
} shirts from weird camera angles, who knows what may happen.
}
} So you see, jump away from determinism and place your vote now!!

The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> It is a popular belief in 20th century America that if a young man
> masterbates hair will grow on his palms, and he'll go blind.  My friends
> and I were debating whether my condition, hair growing out of my
> eyeballs, and loss of motor-function in my hands, might arise from the
> same habit?~

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} It certainly does.  But that's only to be expected, because of your
} habit of masturbating with your eyeballs instead of your hands.  Not
} many young men are able to do that.  Lisa does it with ease, though she
} prefers to use her nose, if she has to do it herself.
}
} You may, if you can pass the tests, become a diciple of Barbara, the
} net.suppleness.goddess.  She will accept male disciples, although most
} of your co-disciples will be attractive young women.  Good luck !
}
} Barbara, by the way, can also satisfy herself with her nose, but she
} does it by curling herself *backward*.  Don't try to do that.

The Usenet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:

> Will Lisa ever marry me?

And in response, thus spake the Oracle:

} Lisa will never commit to a single creature.  However, you may devote
} your life to Lisa in the mystical net.sex.wedding, in somewhat the
} manner in which a devout Catholic woman can become the Bride of Christ.
} If you truly wish to do this, meditate nightly on Lisa, and when you are
} truly ready She will come bearing further instruction.
