"The most merciful thing in
the world, I think, is the
inability of the human mind
to correlate all its contents.
We live on a placid island of
... ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it
was not meant that we
should voyage far. The
sciences, each straining in
its own direction, have
hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing
together of dissociated
knowledge will open up
such terrifying vistas of
reality, and of our frightful
position therein, that we shall either go mad from the
revelation or flee from the
light into the peace and
safety of a new dark age." -
H. P. Lovecraft

Do you ever get this sick
feeling of panic, and
wonder why there is
something rather than
absolutely nothing?

Doesn't it freak you out just
a little that there could have
been nothing, forever and
ever?

Do you understand the Big
Bang theory?

Doesn't it seem a little
strange that no one
worries about another Big
Bang just popping up and
destroying everything we
know?
