“It looks like the human race is finally coming to an end!”
the rat said to his friend, who responded, “What makes you think so!? The smartest of us have predicted this for thousands of years, and it still hasn’t happened!” “Well, just look at what’s going on!” the first rat answered. “War, disease, famine, drought, murder, suicide, and mayhem wherever one looks. I have to believe that it’s never been this bad!” “You need to read more human history!” the second rat replied. “It’s always been like this. And, in fact, there have been periods when it’s been much, much worse. . .”

“Human life doesn’t seem to have any meaning--
each of them just muddling through their existence!” the rat expressed to his friend, who responded, “No truer words have been spoken! Not to mention how we are treated: killed in traps, poisoned, and hit with blunt objects for no other reason than we don’t look like them, smell like them, nor act like them.” “Brilliant analysis!” the first rat responded. “If only we could put rat poison in their drinking water and alcoholic consumptions!” “That would be poetic justice!” the second rat replied, “but unfortunately poetic justice is such a rarity in a world like ours. . .” |
