Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the hammerhead shark as it fell was Oh no, not again. Many people have speculated that if we knew exactly why the shark had thought that we would know a lot more about the nature of the universe than we do now.
Assuming there is a single god and there cant be one before or after him, his age is surely interesting. But if there are multiple gods or they succeed each other or something like that, it matters much less. But since Earth was not created by God (in the book/movie i mean, cant say anything for sure irl), how would Earth be an experiment in figuring out the Answer?
