[Magdalen] neat comparisons

[Jay Weigel]

I get pretty annoyed with the creationist types, but at the same time I
pity them because their vision of God is so small. I don't worry too much
about what or who may be "out there" either.  After all, if God made the
universe, God made them too in all their glorious forms, no matter how
"non-glorious" they may seem to us. The psalmist said, "When I consider the
heavens you have made, what is man that you are mindful of him?"
