a picture of andromeda?

i think the hubble ultra deep field does a better job at blowing my mind. to attempt to give some perspective here (although the brain has trouble with these kind of scales), this picture comprises a section of the sky less than the size of a grain of sand held at arm's length.

This isn't why creationism is bullshit. If you can believe that a sky fairy created the earth from nothing like magic, it isn't that much more of a stretch to believe he can also make the universe out of nothing.
