A young engineer designs and builds an enormous and elaborate ant farm in his 4 car garage. The ant farm nearly takes up the whole garage, over 40 square feet. There are different ecosystems with a variety of terrains, bodies of water, plants and a vast range of ant breeds along with other species of insects and creatures. He skillfully emulates mountains and hills, valleys, canyons and flats, lakes, swamps and rivers. He creates lights which hang from above which replicate both the sun by day and the moon and stars by night. An irrigation system creates rain, mist and refills wells all throughout at random. There are also devices installed which produce a palette of wind pressures and climate temperatures. There are even ingeniously simulated events of natural disasters of seismic activity, storms, floods and fires within various regions of the sophisticated ant farm.

Life in this insectoid bio dome flourishes and becomes
self-sufficient with subtle assistance from the engineer. The food chain balances itself out with
occasional help from the engineer to ensure maintenance. Ants are the dominant species in this
mechanically ordered world of small creatures.
They quickly begin to form colonies and societies and continue to
populate steadily for hundreds of ant generations. They are unable to see outside their world
nor are they keenly aware of the engineers existence.
Life in the ant world is robust and diverse. There are cultures and different levels of
progress. Anything from Wars over resources and control occur to ants blending
into other ant societies take place.
Some ants are more sophisticated than others as diversity blossoms.
After several decades pass, ants begin to wonder and even
debate about where they came from. Some believe they were created while others
believe that nature brought about their existence by chance while still some
remained neutral.
The ants who believed that nature brought about their
existence by chance observed the gradual changes in nature and proposed that
all existence evolved and that there must have initially been some sort of a
bang of matter in the outside universe. They ridiculed the ants who believed
they were created and reasoned that the creation theory sounds like a fairy
tail.
The other school of thought philosophized that everything
must have been created since their world operates and functions with far too
much order and sophistication to have naturally evolved at random by sheer chance. They also pointed out that none of the ants
ever observed any of the natural events for which they claimed and reasoned
that it was speculation.
Legend in the ant world has it that some ants throughout
history have been mysteriously abducted out of the world and into the sky by a
five pronged claw of a great creature.
And on some occasions, ants would
be returned by this five pronged claw unharmed.
What these ants claimed to have seen in the heavens above are regarded
are fairy tales.
However, a great many ants endorse this mysterious clawed
creature as their god and the keeper of their world. They believe the legends which speak of ants
who were taken up into the heavens by his mighty claw and claim to see this
clawed god do unimaginable things. He
has the power to create light with the flip of a great switch and speak to
other gods like him magically through claw held devices. He travels in a great big carriage which can
race at an unimaginable speed and he can even take off into his heavens with an
immense winged cylinder at speeds too fast to put into ant words. He was even once alleged to have been seen
moving and creating entire mountains in an instant with his own claw. He even lifted part of the whole ant planet
with his own claw.
The communities of
ants who believe these stories and feel there is such a great and powerful five
pronged claw keeper of their world are regarded as lunatics and silly and blind
by the rest of the ant world. And most
ants are offended if these theistic ants even speak of such a creator.
Which of the groups
of ants were correct?
