On the one hand, nothing is more beautiful than understanding more and more of a breathtakingly complex and godless Universe where natural laws account for brains that in turn determine natural laws. Reality is stranger than fiction and that is exciting at times. On the other hand, it can also be frighteningly lonely, and that many of the brains around me have evolved to be taken in by superstition, which I see in a new (secular) light, and where I am now a minority perspective, is a bit depressing.
