One day soon, the whole "virgin mary" thing isn't going to look so much like a religious miracle. It's going to be more of an "oh, I knew they were all sharks in those days" thing

When one is born with legs I'm moving inland.

As long as we don't see signs of the megalodon coming back, I'm cool.

Don't forget the Komodo Dragons! They've now had two of them pull that stunt.

lucretia_borgia: "Now it's possible for women to swim with the sharks and still have kids."

There were a number of cheesy anti-feminist dystopian SF novels that came out the 1970s (e.g., Five to Twelve, Sex and the High Command); a common trope of those novels was that since the Pill and all that women's-lib stuff made men superfluous, men would just gradually disappear from the scene (Lamarckian evolution?). Perhaps the sharks are a harbinger of what other species will soon face....
