Death by diarrhea doesn't exactly scream, "awe-inspiring"

Why not?

Because it seems pretty reasonable that if you evolved, some microbe will be evolved to take advantage of you, and if you didn't by chance evolve resistance, you'd die so you can contribute to evolution by being deselected.

Nothing awe inspiring, nothing more unusual that the most common place natural occurrences and processes like a tadpole getting eaten or bread molding.

Awe is an infantile emotion, and makes most susceptible to credulity and idiocy. If you can't master yourself, then at least try to keep it under control.
