It's not the fittest, but the cutest,  
that will eventually survive.  
God may have been an absolutist,  
but wanted everyone to thrive,  
not knowing pleasure, though: He's had it  
with those who, knowingly, have at it...

Unknowing? Pleasure all you want.  
The deity won't take affront.

The recipe, then: cute and clueless.  
No need to learn that less is more.  
That way, there's more so to adore,  
existing knowledge free, and dueless,  
The dues collected only so  
to punish those who need to know.
