“The experiment was designed to show what a creature that evolved from slime mold was capable of,” said a burning bush, speaking on behalf of God. “We’ve shown that these creatures can not only develop poetry, literature, and art, but also Tetris, the Internet, YouTube, and Gogol Bordello. With additional funding God believes that these creatures might be able to create a sustainable culture.”
“While the experiment has produced interesting results,” said a being whose nominator can not be represented in a space of fewer then 11 dimensions, “the Celestial Administration feels that God has crossed the boundaries of good science in several areas: first, when She allowed subjects on Earth to worship Her; second, when She encouraged groups who worshiped her in different ways to slaughter one another; and third when she allowed the dodo to go extinct. Many of us liked the dodo. As a result, we have decided not to provide further funding for the experiment.”
Asked for her reaction, God said only that She was “considering her alternatives.”
