People of all faiths--can I get your opinions on this song, please?

Question

Everybody lives on a street in a city
Or a village or a town for what it's worth.
And they're all inside a country which is part of a continent
That sits upon a planet known as Earth.
And the Earth is a ball full of oceans and some mountains
Which is out there spinning silently in space.
And living on that Earth are the plants and the animals
And also the entire human race.

It's a great big universe
And we're all really puny
We're just tiny little specks
About the size of Mickey Rooney.
It's big and black and inky
And we are small and dinky
It's a big universe and we're not.

And we're part of a vast interplanetary system
Stretching seven hundred billion miles long.
With nine planets and a sun; we think the Earth's the only one
That has life on it, although we could be wrong.
Across the interstellar voids are a billion asteroids
Including meteors and Halley's Comet too.
And there's over fifty moons floating out there like balloons
In a panoramic trillion-mile view.

And still it's all a speck amid a hundred billion stars
In a galaxy we call the Milky Way.
It's sixty thousand trillion miles from one end to the other
And still that's just a fraction of the way.
'Cause there's a hundred billion galaxies that stretch across the sky
Filled with constellations, planets, moons and stars.
And still the universe extends to a place that never ends
Which is maybe just inside a little jar!

It's a great big universe
And we're all really puny
We're just tiny little specks
About the size of Mickey Rooney.
*Though we don't know how it got here
*We're an important part here
*It's a big universe and it's ours!

It's a great big universe
And we're all really puny
We're just tiny little specks
About the size of Mickey Rooney.
You might think that you're essential
Try inconsequential
It's a small world after all!

it's off of the Animaniacs

Answer 1

Great song! I fear that the narrow-minded will feel that life exists here and that the rest of the universe is a mere illusion, though. Perhaps they will believe this song to be nothing more than a fairy tale--then ironically, they fall back on their Bible!

Answer 2

I love it! I heard in used on The Way of the Master Radio to explain how big God is. I just wonder how many people get the Mickey Rooney reference...

Answer 3

Animaniacs!!

I love this song. And it makes a great point. Who cares how it got here? It's here, we're here, why ask why? Why not just enjoy?

Answer 4

I love the Animaniacs. I especially love Pinky and the Brain!

I will ring your doorbell and run away!!!

Answer 5

like sands in a hour glass each grain is another world ok that song was all right kind of makes you feel small but its ok to be itty bitty were still loved

Answer 6

I like that. My daughter is a big fan of animaniacs.

Answer 7

Hahahaha!! Nice, Hayden;-)

Answer 8

for the duration of different circumstances in my life, i can work out myself figuring out with the two brothers. there's a time for the two peace and battling, one ought to % the two properly. good now tho i tend to be extra into hues of gray. once you inspect the international in in basic terms black and white you permit out the nuances.

Answer 9

Catholic-I'm not really judging for the catholic faith entirely but i do think its not bad. the only little problem is that i don't really know if we are important here. Something i do know is that the universe isn't ours it is God's because he made it. We aren't here to own it.

Answer 10

I agree with it. We are, after all, inconsequential.
