God and Darwindo not get along becauseGod is female. She is.Although I am also female,I can't be expectedto loveonly God becauseDarwin is tooDag-Gone Powerful.You see,he climbedinto my mouthwith two black-haired white handsand bare black-haired white feetand a gorilla shaped headwhen I was twelve.And now he sits cross-leggedon my heart,making me do stuff.I try to separate the two,to make Darwin stop sitting on top of God(Imean, why not?My brain wouldn't mind the company.),but he refuses to move,sitting there complacently pullingthe strings of my life.So they don't get along.When I listen to Darwin too much,God grows numb underneath him(God is at least polite).But when I listen to God,Darwin throws such a fit,jumping up and downthrashing his arms aboutspitting everywhereand yelling loudlyuntil I fmally pay attention to him again.It's so sad, but oftenGod and I need his permissionfor some female bonding time.It's so hard to keep Her happylike this,but I do my bestto make Her understand thatalthough She created him,it is now his world.-Tricia Stratman
