From your url - "His religious feeling takes the form of a rapturous amazement at the harmony of natural law, which reveals an intelligence of such superiority that, compared with it, all the systematic thinking and acting of human beings is an utterly insignificant reflection."

'utterly insignificant reflection' - Yes, and trite as well ... there's little we can say about this that hasn't been well covered by some Outer Limits or Twilight Zone episode ... time to gird our loins and launch the Uncle Samuel for president campaign - twain2000.com
