The devil gave humans critical thinking, which God didn’t want. He wanted us to not eat from the tree of knowledge so we could basically be thought-slaves for eternity, but the devil did us a favor and turned the tables there with a single conversation. He understands human nature, but doesn’t judge you for being human. He accepts god’s unwanted children unconditionally. And still, he’s the enemy. Why? Because he can take it. Because he’s not our hero. He’s our silent guardian. A watchful protector.

Four examples of gynandromorph (dual-sex) butterflies and moths. Gynandromorphs are organisms which display both male and female physical characteristics, as seen here in the wings of each insect.
And it is not only the wings that are affected. The insect’s body is split in two, its sexual organs are half and half, and even its antennae are different lengths.
This rare sexual chimera is caused when the sex chromosomes fail to separate during fertilisation.
