The Little Engine That Could
A piston inside a cylinder,
Moving up and down,
Forms a weak little engine.
But when multiplied by six or eight,
This piston/cylinder combo creates a powerful engine
That enables a vehicle to zoom down the road.
With my male member moving back and forth
Within your female chamber,
Together our bodies form a small engine.
But as a single marriage is combined with millions of others,
A true colossus of an engine is created called society.
It empowers the vehicle of civilization
To drive on the highway of Destiny
That God has laid out for mankind to travel.
Some day mankind will populate all
The habitable planets of our galaxy.
Who would have thought that something
As simple as the sex urge,
the male-female combination,
(in its glorified form ,ie, matrimony)
Would be enough to carry us that far!
(Of course, by itself, it really isn't.
There's more to it than that.)

The 'little engine' under the guise of nationalist expansion drove the formation of many colonial empires on earth. In their way perhaps fulfilling Genesis 1 verse 28.

I looked up Genesis 1.28.It's about 2 different things:(1)"be fruitful and multiply" and (2)have dominion over the animals.With part 1, parents exercise "dominion" over their offspring who are like little animals to start with.While with part 2, we exercise a guardian role over the animals, protective of our pets. but also protective of wild species, especially the ones in danger of extinction.Mankind is destined to play a sort of parental role with the animals.Which is as it should be.As "the child is father to the man," so too the animal(the animal world) is father to the species of mankind. Of course GOD is the Father. But he has arranged for man to come via the animals, as Evolution theory reveals.Which theory comes to us thru the Church, ie, it was a Christian seminary student, Charles Darwin, who arrived at it. So if you value that theory, you should be grateful to the Christian CHURCH(the role it played in bringing Evolution to you). IT(The Church) is what produced the mind of Charles Darwin.
