Great graphic, Phil, although Tiberius is right. It applies more to devotees of the Angry Desert God who think they have a special friend in the sky.

Yes, great picture, thanks for sharing, but the idea or message behind it is not new to me.

Atheist: "Why do you think that a god would actually care about creatures living in such a tiny and insignificant speck of dot in this huge, entire universe?"
Well, I can take that further and say: "Why would he care that he does care?"

Also, if I was God, then I wouldn't want to the make the universe in a way so that the earth is the only thing in the universe and there is just darkness and emptiness in space everywhere we looked. That would be a boring universe. Also, I wouldn't want to put barriers or walls somewhere in the universe to make humans feel "special" or to make them feel less small as compared to the rest of the universe. To me, the universe is a lot more beautiful with stars, galaxies, black holes, planets, and all that cosmological stuff which it already has although, of course, I'm not saying that this necessarily implies that an intelligent being created the universe either.

God must have been very busy.
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.

Nah, I think he let gravity do all the sorting for him. He could have done it faster if he did it himself. Big Grin

Here? Easily.

In reality,he seems pretty typical of the hundreds of Muslims I've met.

My observation is that most of the people here,theist or atheist, are atypical. You get somebody more-or-less normal (Rayaan, Tacky,---me Big Grin) they tend to stand out..
