I see that astrophysics has reached a dead end so what is there left to do but followers trying to make themselves feel better at the expense of others. Some may even get the creeping sense that they, like the national socialists, developed this type of despising because there was nothing inspiring in their outlook anyway.

Astronomy has always been here and rings out its joys in a silent way amid all the vibrancy and bustle of daily life. For the spiritual, it is where the Universal meets the individual as we participate in all those motions which make life possible.
