I'm sorry about climate changing and so we're the dinasours who got blasted away with God knows what. I'm adapting by just living as best I can and not worry ABOUT WHAT GOD DOES. GLAD IM A SURVIVOR AND not whining. Poor birds are more worried than me. They have to navigate around the KILLER WINDMILLS
