Titbits Two: New Galaxies

Have you heard about the new universes, which scientists have discovered - and the earth-like planets within them? The dimensions and distances may be somewhat difficult to comprehend, but basically, what we humans are discovering are divine experimentations - or do you believe that God created a functioning Earth from the get-go?

Of course not. First, there was the acquatic planet, with an incomprehensible array of living beings in the sea. The continent-thing just didn't work out at the time. At least the notion of biodiversity was borne - it applies to our Earth today (about 90% of our biodiversity (see O. E. Wilson quote) is in the oceans). We humans have yet to discover this Earth-like planet. 

Second, God tried harder (like Avis). Out came Planet of the Apes, which humans have already imagined in movie format, after denying they had anything in common with any particular animal for centuries- but having lived in (forced) unison with them (fauna) for even longer. It may well be that the astronomical observers have just discovered this Earth-like planet.

All good things being 3, God got Genesis going. The results of which we are familiar with and are constantly manipulating. Which was God's initial idea. God was looking for some auto-management capability, so that God didn't have to check on things every nano-second (in fact, God's time rythm is excrutiatingly slow, impossible for us to comprehend). The acquatic and Ape planets required a lot of geothermal and evolution-prodding attention, whilst the 3rd Earth, with humans emerging rather rapidly (from God's perspective), required less of God's attention, because humans had this innate desire to govern nature - of course implanted into them in a unique evolutionary formula because God wanted this planet to take of itself more than the others.

You know the rest of the story. So does God, who must be female. She admitted (to herself) making mistakes and tried again, instead of blaming others. She's very, very, very, very patient. I just wonder what she's got up her sleeves for a 4th planet.
