I first heard that in about 1974, but the names were “Elijah” for the parrot and “Jesus” for the Rotty.
A Lutheran college professor used it to make a point; I’ve long forgotten the point, of course!

Have you heard his parody on eco-devo? It is the best.

One biology professor when I was in my university days commented on the idea that humans could be created by assembling human DNA molecule by molecule and putting it in a cell: that if all that information got sent across the stars to an alien civilization they would be unable to make viable humans because a great deal of what it is to be human resides in the DNA of the multitudes of bacteria that call our innards home – so he would say that the bacteria in our colons are evolutionarily advanced with us,

That joke reminds me of the guy who got a rescue dog from the animal shelter, and the dog had been named Jesús by his previous Latino owners, and would only answer to that name. He felt funny calling his dog “Jesus” so instead changed his name to Zeus. That way, the dog would respond when he said, “Hey, Zeus! Come here!”

Sounds like Montey Python.

New Science Fiction Movie – “65”

Astronaut Adam Driver accidentally drives his spaceship back in time and crashes into the earth of 65 million years ago. And he is attacked by dinosaurs??? Well, the famous asteroid that killed off the non-avian dinosaurs, marine reptiles, and most big, scary stuff happened 66 million years ago. So nothing much would be around to hurt you 65 million years ago–just some tiny chittering mammals, birds, insects and the like.
