“Dozens of species of insects give virgin birth. Crayfish give virgin birth. Some honeybees give virgin birth. And Komodo dragons – yeah, those big lizards give virgin birth, too. Jeez, one human gives virgin birth and that jump-starts one of the world’s greatest religions. But when a Komodo dragon gives virgin birth, do you know what it’s thinking? It’s thinking, ‘This is Tuesday, right? I think this is Tuesday. What am I going to do on Wednesday?”
