    Eldritch insanity level enlightement.

    Imagine, you’re a medieval professor, believing in geocentrism as the bible says, world is ours to take, human important and all that.
    And then you learn that you’re a mere moving something among billions others, that accidentally came to be on a speck of dust in the vast emptiness of the universe.
