Dinosaurs Believed in Intelligent Design!

“Intelligent Design” was on top of the list whenever the dinosaurs gathered at their national and international symposiums. 

“We’ve been here, on top of the heap, for millions of years; the universe, this earth, designed, intelligently designed, for us.”


And of our kind, we’ve got a few on the pinnacle of the heap, who delight in eating one another. But the point is this: we’re the heap, and nothing else can get in our way. The world belongs to us. We eat what we want. We want what we eat. It’s good deal. 


And is that an accident?


Heck no! The gods made it so, just for us. A few degrees of climate variation one way of the other, and we’d not be here. 


How long has it been?


Millions of years …  I mean, millions, tens of millions … enough time to convince everything else that the dinosaurs were right: fate, the gods, everything, from the littles atom to the swirling stars, was on their side.


And, then, in the Yucatan, an asteroid … 


And when all was said and done, it was the shrew that survived and surmounted, because it could borrow. And when it emerged, and surveyed the world waiting for it, it wondered if maybe, just maybe, the universe was designed, intelligently designed, for its wellbeing.
