Power (continued)
those big scary bastards that ruled the watery world.
If you believe Charles Darwin, natural selection created
thousand of species that can adapt to different
environments. Some animals developed huge eyes to see,
like using flashlights at night, and others grew two-foot-long
tongues to snap up bugs and insects, who were all the while
thinking that they were safe as could be, just sunning
themselves on a broad jungle leaf.
Then, about twelve thousand years ago, the most amazing
thing of all happened. The monkey-ape-man came down out
of the trees in Africa and started strolling all over the planet.
Yeah, he even changed skin colors and grew blond hair; his
eyes turned blue and he stopped growing hair all over his
body like his ape brothers and sisters.
With him, the Earth finally had a new and supremely powerful
swinging dick; even the gigantic dinosaurs who lived
millions of years before this bad-ass creature would have
been no match for his inventions and cunning, for his
weapons and forts and traps and societies.
The new swinging dicks got tired of humping around all day,
hunting, and gathering, so they came up with all sorts of
weird shit, like religion and politics. Big chiefs in charge
would make up all sort of useless and random ideas for the
clueless to follow, so that they wouldn't have to use the big
brains that took them out of monkey land to begin with.
The big bosses started drawing invisible lines that nobody
could see, up and down the mountains and across the
flatlands. They told the clueless idiots that was a beautiful
thing to die defending the invisible lines they had sketched
all over the green and blue planet.
