mark my words... one day, pigs WILL fly!

i was having a discussion on my message board about whether or not the human race will one day become a global race with similar skin tone, bone structure, height, body shape, etc. someone said that it is an impossibility. it reminded me of the term, "when pigs fly!" then it occurred to me that stranger things have happened. i mean, evolution as a whole is a pretty freaky thing. did early primates ever think they would develop an opposable digit? probably not. so, though it now seems unlikely, i think it is definitely possible that one day (thousands and thousands of years from now) we will be one global race and pigs will fly.

the great thing about this is that if pigs were to develop wings, it would be like the collective consciousness willed the genetic deformity to take place just by repeating the phrase, "when pigs fly!" wouldn't that be awesome?!? when the first little piggy takes to wing, we'll all think, "wow, those metaphysical whackos were right! mind really can alter matter." then there'll be this dramatic paradigm shift where we all learn to become psychic, telekinetic and whatever else. any conception of god as interpreted through today's religions will dissolve, and we'll be this all-powerful, all-knowing homogeneous race surrounded by millions of flying pigs.

heed the prophecy of carissadamus.

I like the lighter side of Carissa, as well. I usually skip the real section of the paper and head for the comics. Besides, all that I know about evolution, I learned in Tennessee, in the Scopes Monkey Trial.

Also, Karen, since you don't have a blog I can comment on, I have to tell you that you wrote one of the funniest comments I have ever seen: "So how is Jesus as a lover? I bet he's selfish."
