Do not get blinded by what you think you know
We are like ants in a garden
Those have no idea of how big the world is, what humans do, traffic rules, radio, teefee
and yet those ants have their own rules and understanding some of that we do not even know in depth.
And all those stars and even more planets... and life... and 'origin'.
Locked up in a few tunnels shooting marbles ... look at the sky for a change...
I am not religious, but have surely had cosmic experiences.. 
'tronics is fun, to play, but what are we and how are we used in the greater view of things..
all is connected
