Scott alternatives that don’t really work because Scott doesn’t actually use this form to argue for propositions:
Job: “God, why P?”
God: “IN THE MOST PERFECTLY HAPPY AND JUST UNIVERSE, THERE IS NO P. THE BEINGS WHO INHABIT THIS UNIVERSE ARE WITHOUT BODIES, AND DO NOT HUNGER OR THIRST OR LABOR OR LUST. THEY SIT UPON LOTUS THRONES AND CONTEMPLATE THE PERFECTION OF ALL THINGS. IF I WERE TO UNCREATE ALL WORLDS SAVE THAT ONE, WOULD IT MEAN MAKING P FALSE? OR WOULD IT MEAN KILLING YOU, WHILE FAR AWAY IN A DIFFERENT UNIVERSE INCORPOREAL BEINGS SAT ON THEIR LOTUS THRONES REGARDLESS?”
“Hey,” the cactus person finally said, “just out of curiosity, was the answer P?”
“Yeah,” said the big green bat. “That’s what I got too.”
