Once piece of research shocked Darwin to his core
He knew how some insects like parasitic wasp lay eggs on larvae of other insects
so that their young, when hatched can feed on them
they also sting each part of pray's nervous system
to paralyse it, but not kill it to keep the meat fresh
so the victim maybe aware that being slowly eaten away from inside
but unable to move a muscle to do anything about it
How do we face this deeply disturbing truth? Duck under the security blanket of faith in
god? And then, Darwin wondered,
What kind of god would create an animal can exist in this horrible way?
Isn't it better to embrace reality? bleak as it is sometime's may be?
Than to avoid it and live a lie?
