Creation & EvolutionForum for the discussion of this important topic. This forum is open to non-believers. There is a Christians-only forum in the Christians-only section too.
This is the most important video on the meaning of life and the sacredness of the Creation that I've ever seen. This is a video that can help us put our lives, and the universe around us, into perspective...

This video may give me a fuzzy warm strange feeling, but it still seems like we're really insignificant and it's dumb to assume we're unique in the universe that stretches over 70 Billion light years across and has billions and billions of stars and planets and the possibility of life on each of them.
Why because I am a realist? and see life for what it is and not what I want it to be,
you might be able to delude yourself but I can't.
or is it because I will not believe a story someone wrote a long time ago that makes no sense at all,
and if you think I am 'a sad, strange, little man', I know I am on the right track.

This makes you feel humble before God? Why God? This makes me feel insignificant, laughably insignificant, in the face of the supreme vastness of even our own solar system.
Saying that we are the purpose of creation is like saying that the Eiffel tower was built for the last skin of paint on the topmost square centimetre of it.

Where did you get 70 billion light years across? I'm not doubting you but I thought it was more like 26 billion light years across.

Indeed. Makes you wonder how many other pale blue dots are out there with their own dictators, religions, saints and sinners.
