If the human race ever reaches the stars and visits other planets with intelligent life, how will we explain that, despite our glowing technology and human ingenuity, we look to a dirt-digging rodent to predict our weather?
I think this may be why aliens don't visit us. They probably have some dirt-digging rodent they use to figure out the world, and are totally embarrassed by it.
And just when we finish explaining why we use a dirt-digging rodent to understand our world, we have to justify why we pray to an invisible man in the sky.
Perhaps we should just stay home.
