This image reminded me of the conversation from "I origin" movie:
In this scene, Ian is showing Sofi the microscopic world, bridging the gap between his rigid science and her spiritualism:
Ian: "Look at this. This is just an onion cell."
Sofi: "It looks like a door."
Ian: "It’s a wall. It’s a protective layer. But look closer... see those little dots? Those are the nuclei. That’s where the blueprints are. Everything that makes the onion an onion is in there."
Later, Sofi uses his own scientific world to challenge him:
Sofi: "Why are you working so hard to disprove God?"
Ian: "Who's disproving God? There's no evidence for one... I'm looking at the data."
Sofi: "How many senses do those worms have? Two. Smell and touch. They live in a world of two senses. But we know there is a world of light and color all around them, right? They just can't perceive it. Maybe we are like those worms.
