...what I experience inside every single time I listen to Carl Sagan's
pale blue dot? I just never tire of it. I go to this video whenever I need to
recharge and gain some perspective. It never fails me.
To me it's one of the most beautiful reflections on both the marvel and
insignificance that is our existence, and I can think of nothing that so fills
me with bursting pride, shame and humility, all at the same time, for being
part of the human race; being a small part of everything.

Many of us can share your experience.
But how much more joy I felt when the day I understood that my Father, my heavenly Father was the Creator responsible for all of that.
I went down to the pond at twighlight. I heard the frogs. I heard the birds. And I joyed in my new realization - " ... my Father did this."
But anyway, I am happy that you feel awe inspired when you view that video. I think I'll go look at it myself.
And I would recommend to you a series of videos entitled The Privileged Planet.

I'm not going to check that out yet but if you're referring to what I think you are then my answer would be "yes".
However another answer is that there is nothing spiritual about anything or alternatively everything seen and understood (and everything that isn't :0 ), is spiritual.... or has the potential to reveal a 'deeper meaning' than first glance may suggest.
I have not listened to the recording, but one thing that Jesus did is die for human beings. No matter how many suns, planets, moons, and other things are out in space, they will not suffer destruction. The bible tells us that human souls can have a 2nd death. Even if humans seem insignificant, the bible tells that they will have an eternity to go through.

Sorry but you sound just like another "worshipper" spreading their dogma and hijacking a thread for no decent reason ....
Originally posted by sonshipI cared little about the music score, but the evidences and conclusions drawn beginning about halfway through the video is amazingly interesting to me. The fact that the observance of a solar eclipse as indicated in chapter 7 could trigger so much knowledge about our planet and the priviledged location it occupies to allow an observer on the Earth to discover it all seems so extraordinary that for this to happen by coincidence is unbelievable to me.
Starts discussing the little dot from 4 billion miles away.
You can skip the 2 minute add in the beginning.
I like the music score.
Video #1 of 12 - [b]The Privedged Planet.

My conclusion is that it certainly was fine tuned for intelligent life like us so we could discover the handiwork of our creator.
