If God wanted tortoises to right themselves, He'd have personally helped them. That upside down tortoise was that way because he refused to donate his shell to his mega-church. The pastor, one of the tortoises who just hid his face, ignored the upside down one because it was God's punishment.

Seriously, so happy to see one helping the other after the bully just flipped the guy and walked away.
