I agree, Christopher.  

Back when we knew everything, the sun, moon, and stars were gods.  Now that science has shown what they are and are not, we've become aware of how little about the world we iactually really know.  In fact, as science advances, we seem to know proportionately less and less -- for every new thing science discovers, it forges many  tantalizing questions we didn't even know needed asking.  Freaking cool indeed.
