... according to Dante *
"This is also why Galileo was so thrilled with the Copernican theory of Earth being "just" one of the planets circling the Sun. To him and others it meant that Earth was *elevated* into the realm of the stars, since it was one of the bodies circling those "perfect" realms. Becoming like the rest of the Universe and not in that central pit made Earth and humanity more important, not less."
That's beautiful!
* Dante's Prayer, is also one of the most beaufitul songs I've ever heard.
"The latest question is, is our Universe the only one?"
MLK, I'm still wondering if there's life in our solar system. :)
Multi-universes, not in the exact duplicative, parallel/quantum sense as I've been reading lately, (another you or me existing elsewhere), could be possible, imho.
