"Either God wants to abolish evil, and cannot; or he can, but does not want to. ... If he wants to, but cannot, he is impotent. If he can, but does not want to, he is wicked. ... If, as they say, God can abolish evil, and God really wants to do it, why is there evil in the world?" -Epicurus


Fear is the mother of all gods.

Nature does all things spontaneously, by herself, without the meddling of the gods. -Lucretius

Sometimes we can choose the path we follow. Sometimes our choices are made for us. And sometimes we have no choice at all

Except on every third Wednesday provided it falls on an odd number, and the player on the seventh wicket call for a ball priming five points in advance.

No no, that's the only set rule in Calvinball. You can never play it the same way twice.

Actually the only set rule is to wear masks.

Any other rule can be changed.

Oh yeah. Well the masks don't relate to gameplay, and never playing the same way twice is a permanent rule. Rule 1.9, in bold. This is established in the strip; it can never be the same twice.
