Yawn, how do you feel about the principles contained in Leviticus 25:23-24, Ezekiel 34:2-4, Ezekiel 34:17-18, Genesis 9:8-9 and Genesis 9:12-13?

 

Well, if you watch one of the "Earth after man" shows on Discovery or the Science Channel, you'd know cockroaches won't do well once mankind is gone. Since they are a tropical insect, once central heat disappears the first freeze will wipe them out.

 

Hey, I wasn't making fun of it...it's probably a smart move unless, that is, in the scenario we ultimately reach for those, there isn't anyone to reach because we've obliterated the planet. In that case, cockroaches are the odds-on favorites to survive a "nuc-u-lar" holocaust. Hell, I take seeds from seeds in my own garden, so I appreciate horticulture and a full stomach as much as anyone.

 

Keith Richards will still be around to keep the fire going.

 

So then the world will be down to only seeds and stems?
