"String Theory" is a useless, unfalsifiable, random hypothesis;
not a "theory", like "the theory of evolution".

Further, there are no strings in "String Theory"; 
it's all N-dimensional branes now.

Like Fusion, it's _ always a few years away;
decade after decade, after decade, after decade.

Pride _ demands ignorance; hence the MultiVerse.

Ignorance can't prove the existence of EuRandomness; 
all of history, every lesson ever, every advance, tells me:
randomness is ignorance, nothing more.

A robot might select an apple over an orange,
but that doesn't mean it has "free will" ("the uncaused cause").

We're consumption machines, exploiting a niche,
(poorly) programmed by nature to take a LessBad "option".
