ailbhe | Open University Assignment (Reply)

I'm currently doing a little of this. I've reached the stage of having 1081 words, of which 123 are the title, the bibliography, and a quote that I daren't count for fear it's just padding. I am about to embark on stage 5: blatantly editing in verbosity. I'm talking about God, so for starters I've replaced every incidence of "omnipotent" with "both omnipotent and omniscient". That gained me 9 words. Hmm.

I'll get there, I have no doubt. I added about 200 words in ten minutes when I printed it out and went into the garden to have a cigarette and an iced drink.

I wonder if I can add a paragraph about how the problem only arises if you believe in God, and you shouldn't do that because - something. Hm.

Doubt it. It's beyond the scope of the essay, disproving the deity.

Oh, in case you're wondering why I have so much time to do housework and write journal entries, the deadline is tomorrow.
