Why would God consider the apes on this particular tiny spinning ball of dust to be special?

Countless trillions of solar systems and the magical master of the universe chose this place for special treatment. What fvcking bullsh!t. A quote by Richard Feyman (famous scientist) about the Magic Jeebus Man: "I can't believe the special stories that have been made up about our relationship to the universe at large because they seem to be too simple, too local, too provincial.

The earth, he came to the earth, one of the aspects of god came to the earth mind you, and look at what's out there. It isn't in proportion." -- Richard Feyman.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
