The Religion of Zaphrod
The Religion of Zaphrod is well-known throughout the world as likely to be one of the truest religions. Its basis is almost total fact on how the human race began. A billion years ago on Mars, robots began toying with the idea of genetically engineered biodiversity. The only thing that existed at the time were one celled organisms. Sensing that there was more to existence than living for oneself, they toyed with the idea of creation. They thought to themselves, “What shall we create? How can we make the singular little organism we know into something that can understand us?”
They began with the building blocks: carbon and water. Slowly, something began to rise out of the slime and goo. At first, it was a hairy creature that only made grunts. It played only with the rocks and red dust on the Martian planet, which the robots lovingly called home. They soon realized this hairy creature needed more than rocks a red dust. He needed trees and water, too. The robots built a rocket ship and sent the hairy creature to live on their neighbor, Earth, with everything he needed to grow and thrive. Over time, the hairy creature slowly evolved into what we know today as human beings. We realized eventually that we were missing something from our lives and began building robots.
