Mankind evolved and learned to adapt. It learned to build and create. Those predators then became playthings. History repeats itself Randy. You are no longer the great predator, Bray says he is. He is the evolution. Bray says he is a God and the weapon holds is greater than anything you can wield. It is your heart. It is something you cannot compete with.
