a circle on the face of the deep

M.C. Escher, where are you? Wrap your noodle around this: can it be a coincidence that in the same day I watch something on coincidences that I get an email about coincidences and get to weigh in on the fact that they don't exist? In which case I've answered my own hypothetical.

Semantics is the tool used by the devil to confound those who consider themselves too smart for God -- ironically, their own knowledge inhibits them from knowing the only knowledge that will save them. And use it here if you want to lose sight of the cross by dabbling in meta-arguments about free will and suffering and fate and the like.

The question and answer is not why and how, but who and who. Seek it not from me.
