Bernard Alternate Ending
“I have found it!” he said, waving the twig in triumph. “Oh, its perfect. Thank you Bernard. It is so nice to have someone around to help me build this nest.” “Well, it’s no problem,” he said, handing her the twig, “I think I quite enjoy nest building, its rather like a scavenger hunt, isn’t?” “Oh quite, quite indeed,” she chirped. “Do you think they will like the nest?” “I would imagine so. I like it. But, who are they?” “My chicks,” she said with pride. “Ah” he replied, understanding dawning on him. “Who is their father?” “I don’t actually know, he flew in one day and left the next,” Rose responded “I don’t blame him though, Spring is often a busy time for male birds. I believe tending to the chicks will be a bit more difficult than …show more content…
“Well I must go and feed the ants dinner. I’ll be back to help again, as soon as I can.” “Goodbye, Bernard.” “Goodbye,” he said with a wave over his shoulder. In his usual gait, arms stiff at his sides, Bernard trotted down the mossy path leading back to his home as he thought of the friends he had made that day. Suddenly, he found himself in the center of a circle of ants. “Hello ants.” “Bernard, our queen is angry with you. You took our twig. She demands your audience,” the ants said as one. “We will take you too her.” And with that they created a pathway lined with ants on both sides. The ants behind Bernard began to crowd him, forcing him to follow the path the ants made in front of him. They led him to a hole in an ant pile which he just barely fit through. Below the ground, there was just enough light coming through holes in the ceiling for him to barely make out small shapes skittering in and out of rows and rows of tunnels.
“This way,” voices said in the darkness. He followed them as best he could, feeling his way along the cold damp walls. This is certainly an adventure, he thought. Ahead, a light appeared and he moved towards it. A large chamber opened up before him, illuminated by light coming through holes in the ceiling far

    As he sat stiff backed and upright in the hard wooden chair, Jotham looked around anxiously. He could only see three of the walls, and the ceiling, if he craned his neck upwards, but that was enough to make him very uneasy indeed. They were grey and bare - not silver grey, but a horrible murky grey, that made it seem like everything was closing in on him. The room was rectangular; not at all wide; there was perhaps a metre between him and the nearer two walls, but it was extremely lengthy; probably about fifteen metres long.…

    It was a great afternoon in District 12 in Panem. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, and the sounds of pickaxes hitting the coal & rocks.

    From another exit of the nest, ants are flowing in a stream, and spreading out in all directions. Our proud ant marches out of the shadowy exit with the squad following in single file. They march to the gigantic meal, and lift the mass with amazing strength, making it look as if they are picking up a feather. From above, it looks as if the cicada is floating towards one of the larger openings to the ant nest. The corpse eventually gets swallowed up into the tunnel.…

    It could be argued by the Western world, that science is our God. Due to the vast progression in science, man has been able to make amazing discoveries and accomplishments, such as putting roving robots on mars, creating machines that can go faster than the speed of sound and creating a thirty inch television that can be rolled up and be put in a paper towel tube for our convenience. While scientific discoveries and accomplishments are usually amazing, beneficial and bring further understanding of the world around us, there is a real danger of replacing God with science, such as those who hold the belief of scientific naturalism. Those who uphold scientific naturalism believe that “nothing exists except the material, there are no nonphysical entities such as God or souls”, as they shut out God completely and try to impose their beliefs on the world around them (Wilkens & Sanford, 2009, p. 101).…
