See - what was the point in answering that nonsense?
Quote:Can the ants see you and verify you are real?Probably.
Quote:Do you threaten them with an eternity of torture if they don't believe in you?No, I commit genocide on them for crossing an invisible line which they can't possibly understand. Lots of people do. We just don't care because we consider them lesser beings or something. Likewise, we're lesser beings than God, and there's no reason he should answer to us.
So what you are saying is that comparing the relationship between man and ants is really nothing at all like comparing the relationship between god and man?
I agree with you completely.
