It seems most natural that way.
Which is my account of the Creation.

And I mean by it, that Life is not and never was anything but living creatures.

That's what life is and will be just living creatures, no matter how large you make the capital L.Out of living creatures the material cosmos was made: out of the death of living creatures, when their little living bodies fell dead and fell asunder into all sorts of matter and forces and energies, sun, moons, stars and worlds.

So you got the universe.

Where you got the living creature from, that first one, don't ask me.
