John Lloyd has put together a fantastic video What’s Invisible? More Than You Think. It basically highlights how 93% of the universe is unknown – dark matter and dark energy. Anything that is visible, that you can see, touch, taste etc. can be considered “pollution.” And when you examine these objects at the subatomic level, all we end up seeing is “empty space.” His entire theory is we basically know so little about anything, so let’s approach life with a posture of humility. Something both political parties would be well advised to do.

“…Do not imagine that if you meet a really humble man, he will be what most people call ‘humble’ nowadays: he will not be a sort of greasy, smarmy person who is always telling you that, of course, he is nobody. Probably all you will think about him is that he seemed a cheerful, intelligent chap who took a real interest in what you said to him. If you do dislike him, it will be because you feel a little envious of anyone who seems to enjoy life so easily. He will not be thinking about humility: he will not be thinking about himself at all.”
