I find it amusing that Bach got more votes than the Beatles.

Now it is such a bizarrely improbably coincidence that anything so
mindbogglingly useful [the Babel fish] could have evolved by chance that
some thinkers have chosen to see it as a final and clinching proof of the
non-existence of God. The argument goes something like this: "I refuse
to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without
faith I am nothing."
"But," says Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway isn't it? It
could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore,
by your own arguments, you don't. QED."
"Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly
vanishes in a puff of logic.
