Yeah, it's much better to believe you have a common ancestor with
nothingness and came from a pile of dirt, like the Bible says. Now
that's true beauty and reality! Not.

"The next day..., Jesus was hungry. Seeing in the distance a fig tree
in leaf, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he reached it,
he found nothing but leaves, because it was not the season for figs.
Then he said to the tree, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again."
... In the morning..., they saw the fig tree withered from the roots.
Peter ... said to Jesus, "Rabbi, look! The fig tree ... has
withered!"" -- Mark 11:12-14, 20-21 (NIV)
Points to remember:-
Jesus was hungry.
He looked for figs on a tree.
But it was not fig season.
Questions to ponder:-
If it wasn't fig season, why would even a moron look for figs?
Is talking to a tree and then killing it for not bearing fruit out of
season a reasonable response, by any standard?
