Great read, it's kind of funny how much value we place on out ability to create complex patterns. Despite how often they are either bad at describing or completely detached from reality. I find it very difficult to see astrophysics as a field of science. .1% involves creating models that describe gravity, movements of the planets, etc. Whereas the other 99.9% is selling bullshit narratives to society on the vastness and all-knowing/all-seeing grandeur of the giant vacuum surrounding our little planet. Instead of being intellectually honest and admitting that the proofs/measurements required to verify their findings either aren't possible with current technology or aren't possible at all; they use the lack of reason in religion as some sort of pseudo contra proof. The truth is, we know very little and we're collectively too terrified by that fact to admit it.
