Teleological

When I look at the world around us I am forced to conclude that the entire thing was created by a vast and diabolical mind. Living beings are forced to survive through the murder and devouring of other living beings. Only one such living being cares enough to lessen the suffering of the devoured being: humans. The squid, for example, feeds on its prey by slowly pulling into its beak where it shreds the helpless creature one small bite at a time. The wolf will hunt down the weak and the pack feeds while the poor, screaming caribou lies helpless on the ground before them. This terrible struggle between the eaters and the eaten is the very gear-works of life.

And rabbits eat their own feces.

The abject horror of existence leads to one inescapable conclusion: this world could only have been created by Cthulhu, the ancient one who's very waking causes terror and insanity. One day this sleeping God will awaken to shatter our insolent and arrogant notions of the divine.
