“It is absurd to define God as omnipotent and then bur-
den him with our own myopic view of the significance of
human beings. What could possibly be interesting or impor-
tant to a God that knows everything, can create anything,
can destroy anything. The concept of ‘importance’ is a
human one born out of our need to make choices for sur-
vival. An omnipotent being has no need to rank things. To
God, nothing in the universe would be more interesting,
more worthy, more useful, more threatening, or more
important than anything else.”
“I still think people are more important to God than ani-
mals and plants and dirt. I think that’s obvious,” I argued.
“What is more important to a car, the steering wheel or
the engine?” he asked.
“The engine is more important because without an
engine, there is no reason to steer,” I reasoned.
“But unless you have both the engine and the steering
wheel, the car is useless, isn’t it?” he asked.
“Well, yes. I guess that’s true,” I admitted.
“The steering wheel and the engine are of equal impor-
tance. It is a human impulse—composed of equal parts arro-
gance and instinct—to believe we can rank everything in
our environment. Importance is not an intrinsic quality of
the universe. It exists only in our delusion-filled minds. I
can assure you that humans are not in any form or fashion
more important than rocks or steering wheels or engines.”
Lo bajé del blog de B3co y me puse a leerlo en un momento de sana desesperación. Por lo pronto está entrenetido y recomendable.
Update: En la página 44 se pone aún más divertido y más recomendable
