Break For An Infomercial-Men are from MARS

One night as I sat around my parent's kitchen table with my siblings (minus Corbin and Alice :( and maybe Cassie too), I was deemed the family's walking and of course talking Infomercial as we played the incredibly entertaining game "Imagine-If." I was a bit offended by the unanimous vote to that extent, but then thought...."How great. Those infomercials get you EVERY time. No matter how annoying they are, you still linger on that channel just to see what new and exciting things are up for sale. I've at least got their attention, which of course is always my goal." So I now take the label as a great compliment of their attention and will thus never let them down.

MEN ARE FROM MARS!!!

Now we all know that book on relationships "Men are From Mars, Women Are From Venus"...they may have actually hit on something quite important. New theories suggest that the first living organisms actually arose on MARS. There is evidence that Mars is or was suitable for sustained life with some not so concrete discoveries of the possibility of water beneath the surface and the evidence of Nitrogen in the atmosphere.... do you see where I'm going with this! So, the theory stands that life began on Mars then was transfered to Earth through asteroids or other such means. This is amazing stuff! Think of the chances. Organic materials just happened to come into contact with each other in just the perfect circumstances of energy to yield the first living organism with just the right arrangement of lipids to protect them. Then, miracle of miracles... actually scratch that. That would be admitting a higher power. Lo and behold (I think that's better) they happened to be trapped in a piece of the blessed Red Planet that became detached and flew toward and hit this other planet unsuitable for starting the life called Earth to begin anew. Then billions of years later, no life is found on Mars but the Earth is booming with intelligent creatures that arose from these life starting organisms through evolution. So, the gist of it is, we evolved from single celled organisms on Mars that could not evolve on their own planet to yield life, but came here to produce the environment necessary to produce the human race. Now that is definitely MORE believable that those quacks that believe GOD created the Earth and all life on it. Idiots.
P.S. For a more factual account, please visit the Hubble Space Telescope website and find it yourself.

Whoa, that is some crazy stuff. You're the smartest little sister I have.

I think Mars was a screw up, and rather than scrap the whole project, God decided to move life to a new project (Earth), and he left Mars for us as the carrot in front of the Donkey.

FYI: If you reduce the history of the Earth into a 24 hour period, multi cellular organisms appeared only 12 hours ago; Dinosaurs appeared within the last hour; Earliest men within the last 40 seconds; and modern man less than one second ago.

Also, I think Mars will some day be habitable. Mars' primary porblem is that its iron core has not cooled, which means that it does not have a magnetic shield like earth, and without a magnetic shield, solar winds can wreak havok on the planet and life will never flourish. Maybe Mars will be the Telestial Kingdom.

How's that for an infomercial?

alice said...

if mars is going to be the telestial kingdom, then that's motivation enough for me not to end up there. i don't want to live in the place that made boys. nothing against them (boys that is), but they tend to stink. if the product of mars stinks as bad as it does, one can only imagine how bad the planet itself actually smells.

And this, coming from someone who was just complaining that their BOYfriend/husband was gone for one night. I think deep down, you know that you would love to live on the planet that is responsible for the better gender. However, we all know that its a hard pill for you to swallow. I can't really relate though, 'cause I'm a boy.
