I made this connection a month ago - that a couple of generations of humans grew up breathing exhaust from leaded gasoline and dust from lead paint and had a bit of an epiphany about the state of the world.
I love that whenever something really awful happens to you, they try to justify it by saying, “God never gives you more than you can handle.”
I know people who have been driven batsh*t insane by what God has given them.
If there is a god he is an asshole and doesn’t deserve worship. I heard he’s the bastard that lets all those children die all the time!
I mean, are we assholes because we let ants die? I agree if he exists he isn’t deserving of worship, but calling him an asshole for letting kids die is kinda rich from a species that mostly gives no fucks about creatures with lower intellect.
Do almost 1/8th of the ants worship humans as their saviour?
would anything change if they did?
Likely, I mean, humans are real, and if a few hundred billion ants started building temples to us, I suspect things would change.
Yep, but if you ask them why babies have cancer they suddenly don’t have time to debate you.
They won’t debate you but they will tell you that “God has a plan for you” or something like that. Even if that plan is living a super short life and dying and agonizing death.
