PREPOSTEROUS!

"Us? Dangerous? Preposterous!" That's what Natalie the wasp seemed to say as she came out and circled above the bush, posing for me. I'd just told her the area had been taped off for some time with a sign to stay out while it was being cleared of dangerous hornets.

"Yeah. Sorry about that." I crouched down to get a closer look so I could make a better sketch. In my 7 years' coming to the park, these stingers had never given me cause for the slightest concern.

I heard hornets have attacked humans when stimulated by scents of body fluids or floral aroma. But they're acting only on instinct then.

------------------------------------------

How insane would it be if anyone were to try to explain to a WASP that operates according to instinct what HUMAN emotion, psychology, education, philosophy, politics, economy, justice is? Just about as ridiculous as if the insect were to try to understand! 

Yet...there are HUMANS, limited created beings, who honestly think--apart from reading the Bible--just by trying hard, they can understand GOD, their Unlimited Creator, Who functions on a completely different level!

And they conjure up all sorts of statements, ACCORDING TO THEIR LIMITED REASON, about what this God must be like.

"ME? Like That? Preposterous!"
