Piss Ants
Phat writes:
Why is it so weird to believe that GOD, creator of a universe with 100 billion galaxies and one hundred billion stars per galaxy has the unique ability to listen to the cries of a piss ant on a dirt speck?
A variation of this of course is, why would a such an expansive Creator be so involved as to extract eternal judgment on fallible piss ant creatures with a very limited view of reality.
And even further why would this Creator require that some of these piss ants act has holy hit men to extract judgment on other underprivileged piss ants - does that make sense to you within this context?
I understand this is an argument is base on incredulity but most of theology is based on one fallacy or another.
