Heck, should have known that some religion had worms as its start...heh.

While that was humorous, I can understand that GOD had ideas that are far beyond mine and could have prescribed that man would evolve from worms (I think he would have started with better). I have no idea except that I can NOT expect that evolution happened without a purpose. I absolutely believe in Micro evolution but not Macro evolution...just not feasible.

So yes, you can have your worms if you wish but I will have other thoughts... Does that make you worm - heh, no malice intended...

Cf. The Cheese and the Worms by Carlo Ginzburg, The story of an Italian miller, known as Menocchio, who was burned at the stake for the irrepressible expression of his cosmogenic opinions:

“I have said that, in my opinion, all was chaos … and out of that bulk a mass formed – just as cheese is made out of milk – and worms appeared in it, and these were the angels, and among that number of angels, there was also God, he too having been created out of that mass at the same time ….”

A fascinating, and may I say an instructive tale. ( I bought it, I have it, and I read it! )
