But my comment was in reference to a Monty Python bit in case you're wondering

Ah, thanks for explaining. I've never seen any of the Monty Python movies, so I didn't understand the context, thought it was some kind of puzzling snark.

Well, AJC, with the day I'm having, I wouldn't mind a nip from the ole flask

Hope your day gets better.

There are 100 billion neurons in the human brain.

There are 100 billion stars in the Milky Way.

There are 100 billion galaxies in the Hubble volume.

There are 100 billion Hubble volumes in the entire universe.

Maybe not exactly, but the orders of magnitude are close.

Great photo.

Reminds me of the song...

"O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder consider all the worlds Thy hands have made...."

Our miniscule planet is filled with life and intelligence. Unless the Sombrero Galaxy has a similar planet, as lovely as the Sombrero Galaxy is, our miniscule planet is incomparably more glorious and significant.

I was simply expressing awe at the beauty of God's universe, and our relatively (in cosmic terms) minor role in it. It wasn't a sermon.

It's amazing the offense some folks will take over the most innocuous observation.
