lol, I realize that.
The point was within the language you take for granted. We all take for granted.
Meaning, when we say something like that it further belittles, shrinks, and in any other way -- makes light of our incredibly amazing ability. We ACTUALLY CAN consider the universe... In fact, just that fact alone, makes us more interesting, and amazing than anything else known in this massive universe. I think as a collective, we have forgot about this and don't really appreciate or explore this more.
I was just trying to point that out without spelling it out.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 34139889 Ok, I thought you were insinuating that I was a weirdo or something!
But I'll (try to) say this:
I think that the very fact that we think we are special, interesting, amazing, whatever shows that we are not.
I mean, people seem to think that we are special because we have developed some unique ability to communicate with each other and consider the universe we live in, but the very fact that we can do that means that it was inevitable that we would be able to do that from the very beginning.
If it has occurred somewhere in the universe then it is NOT special, it is normal. It is how the universe works.
I hope I'm wording it in a way that makes sense, but the very fact that we exist means that we are not special. If we didn't exist then we couldn't exist and wouldn't be here to consider our existence.
