Zombie Amoeba.

As if the human race didn't have enough problems, now it seems we have zombie amoebas. Yes, a strain of amoeba has killed about 100 people world wide since it's discovery eleven years ago but no one really talked about it that much until a young boy died from contact with the amoeba in Lake Havasu in Arizona. apparently the boy fell ill after a visit to the lake and died a week later of flu like symptoms. I guess if you swim in that lake you might expect to fall ill, after all, it is the mating ground for several thousand college students that flock there for spring break and it is probably so full of human discharge and DNA, you could probably open your own sperm bank just by dredging the bottom. However, sickness is expected, death is not. The amoeba actually enters your body through your sinuses and eats your brain. Scientist are not sure of the origin of this organism but I have a pretty good idea. If you look at the evolutionary scale, it will tell you that all life started as a single cell organism, most likely an amoeba. Well, it makes sense that, if normal life evolved from an amoeba, then this particular creature could be the evolutionary starting point of the zombie. We really don't have to be overly worried now but in another hundred thousand years, when brain eating amphibians began to appear, that would be a good time to worry. at that point in the time line it is just a small evolutionary hop to zombie lizards, then a couple million years later and bam! We have zombie rodents and primates. In less than two million years from that point our world will have evolved a completely different race of creatures, zombies. All of them evolving from this simple brain eating, zombie amoeba. I know it is not much of an immediate threat when you think of it all in the Darwinian evolutionary time line. Who is that worried about millions of years from now? The Sun will probably be dead by then anyway or the Earth, long ago devoured by a solar flair. The problem is we can't be so sure of our time line. We all believe that any evolutionary modifications to an animal take thousands of years but what if we are wrong and the evangelical Christians of America actually have a more accurate historical time line? They believe that the world is only six to ten thousand years old and if that is so I am afraid our planet will soon be swarmed by newly evolved zombies. I have looked to the book of Revelations and I am gonna say, next Thursday, give or take a day.
