Generalizing how life interacts with each other. Life feeds on life and can be very cruel about it. Nature shows indifference to the individual at best, and at worst is extremely malevolent. It's pretty cruel for being the product of design from an all-powerful being. This is one piece of the puzzle when determining god's existence.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
