Perhaps so, but what evidence do you
have that maggots "ponder the meaning,
structure, and causation of the natural
world"?
Oh, wait! I see. You mean to say that
maggots *don't* do that. Well, neither
do most of the members of "man" do that.
I think I remember reading that men
think about sex on average, about every
15 seconds.
