A little perspective

A little perspective
I was walking through the woods today with my son and we stopped to look at the bark on a giant pine tree. We looked closer and noticed a long row of ants weaving through the chips of bark. If I had a microscope, I could see the tiny other organisms the ants don't notice.

It made me think for a second about something that just reminds me how ridiculous it would be to believe in a God that would have to make the biggest of the things in this video smaller than the organisms I would need a microscope to see. Moreover, what we would look like to this God and how insanely absurd it would be to think it would ever even care, just as I walked through the woods, unaware of the agendas being carried out by the countless tiny organism that passed below my feet...cool video...
