My daily bread
Raised to worship the New York Times on Sundays, I found myself going to church and praying instead. I thought a lot about God and flesh and blood -- and didn't tell my friends I was becoming a religious freak.

  • "No other creature on planet Earth understands that it will die."

    This one is a no-brainer. Ever wonder why an injured cat crawls off to dark, cool place? Because it knows it's going to die. Of course it actually won't if taken care of, and that demonstrates the difference between "sentience" and "intellect."
