Google Search by voice: How many stars are there in the universe?

"There are about 10 billion galaxies in the observable universe! The number of stars in a galaxy varies, but assuming an average of 100 billion stars per galaxy means that there are about 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 (that's 1 billion trillion) stars in the observable universe!"

A trillion a billion times is a large number. And that's just the stars we can see. Isn't amazing that here on this little insignificant planet in the middle of nowhere, a magical master of the entire universe would be interested in the human apes who live here. Of course that's bullshit. Even if the magic fairy was real, it would be virtually impossible for the thing to know we exist.

Every time I try to explain this to Christian fucktards, they don't understand. Christians are Christians because they are very hard of thinking. Or to be more accurate, Christians are fucking morons.

"Who are we? We find that we live on an insignificant planet of a humdrum star lost in a galaxy tucked away in some forgotten corner of a universe in which there are far more galaxies than people."
-- Carl Sagan

"I can't believe the special stories that have been made up about our relationship to the universe at large because they seem to be too simple, too local, too provincial. The earth, he came to the earth, one of the aspects of God came to the earth mind you, and look at what's out there. It isn't in proportion."
-- Richard Feynman
