The Sum of Awe
Brought to you by the moment that spacetime began.
Questions for all of you if you don't mind reading this whole post.
GOD & THE SUPERNATURAL
In our position of the galaxy (look where it says "Sun", that is our solar system, obviously we are much smaller):
how big do you think we are in the universe? Where do you think our place is in the universe (which is expanding rapidly).
Why would there be any soul inside a random, very small, primate on this random rock in a small part of a small part of a small galaxy? If that was the case, why not there be souls inside every atom in the universe? Every spec of dust on every rock (planet, star, asteroid, etc).
Why would God care about us if we are that small in the universe? Some will answer "God cares about everybody". Considering how large our universe is, we are smaller than dust to him, and I'm sure other life is too, why wouldn't God rather go for a much larger object than us? Why would God care, think about our place in the universe.
AFTERLIFE
We are all just dust and atoms. Sure we have consciousness, but that is just random brain activity which is triggered by our biological function which took billions of years to evolve this way (quite a bit of time)
Do dust or atoms get an afterlife? Does 'star stuff' get an afterlife? Why would we in that case?
If you are to say we have a soul, what exactly makes you think it leaves the body? If the soul is described as non-physical, that means it is similar to our mind (not the brain, the mind). Though the mind is created by brain functions, does it really move? Sure it may seem like your mind is in your head, but really it isn't. You just think that because you see out of your head, you are forgetting your other senses all around your body. So simply, consciousness is just the senses.
Anyway, does the mind move without biological functions? Does it really have a place without a body? Why would the soul move in that case
CONCLUSION
Humans are not special, humans are not unique, humans are nothing compared to the universe. Why would something smaller than an electron compared to the universe even matter? We are made of matter, but only dust particles and cosmic radiation.
Just even thinking "God watches us" or God did something on earth in flesh of a random primate is centralizing it.
Why would any supernatural, paranormal, spiritual, etc thing happen around this spec of dust but not ash in someone's ashtray, which we are much smaller than compared to the universe?
Also, some people claim there is furniture in heaven, human made furniture. Why would that be so? Do you know how much more small, meaningless, etc. that is?
Not trying to offend, it's a large, difficult to explain argument is all. I'm only asking in all respect.
