Hong Kong John

I’ve been trying to pray at meals like Jesus did, and after I about halfway through my snack as I was eating a piece of dragon fruit I remembered to pray. I thanked God for the way this food tastes and for allowing me to have the ability to taste it. How to people that believe in evolution explain the sense of taste? It’s not like everyhing that’s good for us tastes great. Most people don’t like brussel sprouts, broccoli, lima beans, etc but those are all really good for you. Not everyone likes coffee even though clearly it makes you a superior human being so how do they explain taste? It’s not like the survival of the fittest could work that one out. I thought and prayed about this some more. I was thanking God for allowing us to enjoy the senses He gave us, and the thought crossed my mind that a dog can enjoy it’s sense of touch, ie they enjoy having their stomach rubbed or head patted, but they’ll eat their own crap and their vomit. I suppose they could actually enjoy eating a turd though. Dogs definetly have a sense of taste, I’ve seen them turn up their noses at them same food over and over again, but they inhale and even gorge themselves on some food. To me that would confirm that they definitely have a sense of taste. I don’t believe they can savor or desire the taste of certain foods like we can however, but it would be funny for a dog to lay there dreaming
about eating a steak all day. It’s also funny that they make dog toys in the shape of food, like hamburgers and steaks and hotdogs. What if every time they saw it thet thought they were about to eat something great, but were always constantly disappointed that it was just a toy and the squeak just consoled them. While they’re laying there chewing
on the toy they are really thinking about how much they’d like to chew their owners arm for giving them this twisted joke of a toy. I think I’ve put far more thought into this than I should have.
