(The plot of this story is not my own. I don’t know if it’s an old story or an already well-known story, but I’d never heard it before and I enjoyed it! Hence, here it is!)
It was lunchtime at the school run by the nuns. Sister Mary supervised. She placed a sign at one end of the table on top of a big basket of apples. It read: TAKE ONLY ONE APPLE. GOD IS WATCHING.
At the other end of the table was a large bowl of chocolate chip cookies. Some kid had put a sign on it: TAKE AS MANY AS YOU LIKE. GOD IS WATCHING THE APPLES.
Clever kid.

An update is long overdue for God 1.0. Apparently, kids are generation Z.something these days.

I’m rapidly getting too old to even know what these Generations XXX mean, and I don’t even know what a Millennial is. What was wrong with being just a human being? (I’m sincere in not knowing what a Millennial is – Is it some sort of genetic mutational evolutionary step into the future?

At the moment, it certainly seems so. Hope these folks do not manage to turn the prophecy of H G Wells into a reality.
