Ken Arndt says:

	Lord Russell was forced to ultimately say, upon reflection
	as to why the order in the world was there, "It's just
	THERE, that's all."  Not a thrilling answer perhaps?

No, not thrilling at all.  Which is why I am also not thrilled
by this same answer when it is given by theists in response to
the question: "Why is God there?"
