"Used responsibly like an adult who cares" of course!

I don't normally engage in spelling or grammar flames, but in this case, I must:
You left out a comma in the above sentence.

A bit OT but...

Where do pets come from?

A newly discovered chapter in the Book of Genesis has
provided the answer to
"Where do pets come from?"

Adam and Eve said, "Lord, when we were in the garden,
you walked with us every day. Now we do not see you any more. We are
lonesome here, and it is difficult for us to remember how much you
love us."


And God said, "No problem! I will create a companion for you that will
be
with you forever and who will be a reflection of my love for you, so
that you
will love me even when you cannot see me. Regardless of how selfish or
childish or unlovable you may be, this new companion will accept you
as you are and will love you as I do, in spite of yourselves."

And God created a new animal to be a companion for Adam and Eve.

And it was a good animal.

And God was pleased.

And the new animal was pleased to be with Adam and Eve and he wagged
his
tail.

And Adam said, "Lord, I have already named all the animals in the
Kingdom and I cannot think of a name for this new animal."

And God said, "No problem. Because I have created this new animal to
be a
reflection of my love for you, his name will be a reflection of my own
name, and you will call him DOG."

And Dog lived with Adam and Eve and was a companion to them and loved
them.

And they were comforted.

And God was pleased.

And Dog was content and wagged his tail.

After a while, it came to pass that an angel came to the Lord and
said,
"Lord, Adam and Eve have become filled with pride.
They strut and preen like peacocks and they believe they are worthy of
adoration. Dog has indeed taught them that they are loved, but perhaps
too well."

And God said, "No problem! I will create for them a companion who will
be
with them forever and who will see them as they are. The companion
will remind them of their limitations, so they will know that they are
not always worthy of adoration."

And God created CAT to be a companion to Adam and Eve.

And Cat would not obey them. And when Adam and Eve gazed into Cat's
eyes, they were reminded that they were not the supreme beings. And
Adam and Eve learned humility.

And they were greatly improved.

And God was pleased.

And Dog was happy.

And Cat didn't give a ???? one way or the other.
