Best philosophy ever!

Excerpt from Malcolm in the Middle:

Dewey: Like Pastor Roy said, that God's so much bigger and wiser than us that trying to see what he is thinking is like ants trying to see what I am thinking.

Church Lady: Exactly, but we can trust in his wisdom and we can have faith that he is watching over us.

Dewey: Like me with the ant hill in my backyard. I spent days watching the ants. Trying to figure out which ones were good and which ones were bad but they all looked liked just ants, so I started smiting all of them. I was smiting them with the garden hose and with lighter fluid and with the lawn mower and to be perfectly honest I think I went a little crazy with the shovel. Those ants could have been praying to me all day, I wouldn't have heard 'em. There was nothing they could do about it.

Church Lady: But I think that is..... 

Dewey: There's nothing we can do about anything either, so why worry about it. Hey this is making me feel better. 

Church Lady: That is good but.... 

Dewey: I guess all we can do is live our lives with as much kindness and decency as possible and try not to dwell over God standing over us with a giant shovel. Bye!!

Church Lady:  
Incase it isnt obvious she is looking for a shovel!
