plants can sense water and when they're being eaten

[zenba]

so basically the creator is one messed up mofo that wants all of us (plants and animals) to feed off each other causing pain and suffering  and early demise ...this is why i sorta stopped believing in the bible religions and i now think  we are all one giant alien experiment

yup. the religions were created by the aliens[/interdimensionals/whatever term] performing the experiment[s].

and that's the thing about duality. pleasure necessitates pain. life necessitates death.
