(This may seem irrelevant to you, but it sounds like ''WHY DID GOD
CREATE THE NAGGING DRIVERS?")

This is one of the most nagging questions that I have. And I say
"nagging" because the mosquitoes and the "no-see-ems," which you can't
see, are some of the most nagging plagues we endure.

Perhaps this question will show me the path to enlightenment.

Interesting answer. And so the frogs should be happy with them too.

Why hasn't a Christian answered that?

But then we are NOT the center of the universe, dragonflies and frogs
are.

Good to read about them, but not to endure them!

So does the savvy bicylist.

And it's longer for savvy bicylists than the mosquito..

Cephalopods are interesting: they don't
live for very long, but they brcome pretty
smart in the short durations of their lives.

Outsmarting an octopus can be an excerise in
futility.

Still, one could try.

Good thing cephalodods don't drive cars, especially
while yakking on their stoopid cell phones and trying
to get the kids in the back seat to shuddup.


cheers,

Yeah, both octopus and drivers are often predators. And if you are a
little fish, you better keep an eye out for him!

Mosquitoes are more of a nuisance, like the cars that blow the horn at
you.

I started teaching in the Tibetan forums and questions like these, not
philosophical but practical, arise...

"We should control the mosquitoes, should we not? It's either them or
us!"

I do not insult them. If you read my signature, you see that we must
learn to endure and get strength from them. I just question the
rationality of a beautiful world created by a rational god.

Yes, though I still eat flesh, I see the need to go a higher state of
civilization, which I symbolize by a Hungry Lion eating banana, ie.
going vegetarian. ;)

If nature can, it will. There are no morals in nature. Nature is atheistic.

Which, of course, would be fatal to a lion.

Deny him food for a week, and let's see. ;)

God created the lions vegetarian, so the story goes, then they must
have the "guts" to take it.

Well, then wake up to reality: THERE'S NO EVE, NO PARADISE, NO GOD.

Stop the myth and let sexuality just be. That woman that rated the
snake is not any worse than any Christian, probably better 'cause
she's honest and free.

That's OK. I just remind you to beware of live snakes. ;)

The SneakySnake came up to Eve and told her: "Look how fragile and
cold I am... Would you warm me up?" And the rest is history.

MOSQUITOES are like LBS owners/managers - with all that warm
nutritious blood walking about under thin hides, under vast expanses
of inaccessible resting places, with short commutes from home -
prestoe ! evolution.

Yes, promoting the monkey ways. What kind of hybrid are you that is
not a Christian and doesn't care about the monkey either?

Well, let me tell you the MONKEY stands for all those who are
suffering out there: PEOPLE DYING OF HUNGER, OF CRIME, FROM WAR, FROM
RIDING A BIKE...

So yes, fuck everybody but those who are trying to survive out there
WITHOUT a voice.

Mosquitoes are like capitalists...

Bloodsuckers but always a necessary part of the food chain.

I think the design of the mosquitoes took more thought than the
humans. They are the perfect bloodsucking machine on wings while we
humans still needed to invent the bike. Now we only need the safe
roads to be perfect.

Sorry, the TibetanMonk feels the need to break with the other monks
and declare there's NO reincarnation. That will be classified as
"mental masturbation" under the new jungle philosophy.

Thus we can and must improve our lot on this Earth, particularly for
the monkeys, something the Christians carefully avoid.

The so-called "serpent" may have been a dinosaur since they look very

The simple answer is God didn't because God doesn't exist. Like us,
the mosquito evolved to maximise its chances of survival in
competition and/or collaboration with other species.

Do you believe in reincarnation?

I don't either... thus I'm more enlightened than the masters.

Now, how can we apply the lessons of the mosquito to bicycling?

Be nagging until you have it your way.
