I’ve never not been an atheist, but making bees so friggin’ cute would probably the best proof of intelligent design I’ve ever seen. Screw the “banana’s fit your hand perfectly” crap, nah, look at those pollinators fat furry bodies dude!

Mosquitos are also pollinators.

Same, and the only proof of a loving god I’ve ever seen is that we have been given a world of cute, pettable animals who love being petted. Some garden Petting Zoo of Eden type shit.
