I am surprised you ask this question, Ken.  How do we know there are
ants and humans? Because THE BIBLE TELLS US SO, of course!  "The ants are
a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer;" (Proverbs
31:25).  "Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise;"
(Proverbs 6:5).  I won't quote biblical evidence for the existence of
people, I am sure you can find some.

Why should we trust in the evidence of our own senses, when we can
find it all in THE BIBLE?
