Saturday Poker Wisdom #20 Posted by kamassy , under: Saturday Poker Wisdom
God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of his own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players [i.e., everybody], to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won’t tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.
The fact that Terry Pratchett is mentioning Poker in his book explains the importance and magnitude of the game. And what a mental picture this is - God playing poker. I would like to meet his opponent.
