But here's the thing, we aren't ants. We are quite literally the greatest species on earth, and perhaps even the greatest in our galaxy.
You justify your premise with the limitations that govern lesser lifeforms — limitations that do not apply to us.
What is it that you think separates humanity from ants? Is it our size? The number of our limbs?
What separates humanity from cats? A tail? Fur?
Why are we the dominants species of this planet?
Our cognitive abilities are not the same as the rest of earths inhabitants. You cannot apply the limits of lesser lifeforms onto humanity when it's the very absence of those limits that set us apart.
I'm not saying god doesn't exist, and I'm not saying that we could perceive god if he did. I'm not making any assertions.
Perhaps there are cosmic entities beyond our ability to recognize. Who knows.
What I do know is that you can't justify faith in those hypothetical entities based on the assumption that we're the same as ants, or dogs, or fish.
We are men. We have the ability to rationally examine the world. We can build tools to examine the world in our ways our eyes never could.
Our understanding of reality isn't limited to what we see, or hear, or personally experience; it's based on logic.
Logic isn't restrained by intuition. We can build machines that analyze things in more detail and in greater scope than any human mind could ever comprehend. We are not limited by our humanity.
If you want to assert that god exists then you have to do better than comparing us to fucking dogs.
