Who...would even think that'd be a good idea to try?!?

[xp_phoenix]

The sounds like the beginning of the plot to a horror or science fiction movie.

Zombie cicadas? I sort of feel like the only person that would eat such an infected thing anyway... would be the most unwise (and maybe bored? I—I don’t know, maybe there was a dare that went really wrong) person in the universe if they thought it was a good idea to try.

(And completely agree--scary movie plot. Definitely a scary movie in the making.)

From the same article:

Two thirds of atheists stop identifying as such after a personal encounter with God.

I'm just rather impressed by the one third that don't.

I know right? It's like, do you want zombie apocalypses? Because this is how you get zombie apocalypses!

[xp_cypher]

Yeah, almost certainly some confluence of someone bored and a dare.

maybe the other third are dead? idek
