How so? The world on earth is nothing more than a microcosm of reality. Even the most radical change on our planet would have the most marginal impact on the known universe.
The size of impact on the universe is not a measure of its value.

No, in fact the opposite is true.

So we've been impacted by knowledge of the place we exist in? I find myself more awash in it than anything; there's a lot of universe to articulate as long as anybody feels like learning about it.

^I could barely understand one word of that post. 
I guess I speak spiritually.

I guess I speak spiritually. I am a Catholic of Jewish origin, and I am deeply scientifically minded with degrees in Physics and Math, as well as Law. I have always maintained a belief in a high power of some sort, and my education has not influenced my spiritual facets to any degree.

Immortality strikes me as pretty dangerous... Most traditions suggest that any deity imbued with too much of it just gets bored & starts destroying all adjoining environs. It's almost like gods need office space.

Without risking my own life in the name of fun I'd have no clue what to do with the remainder...

^The remainder of what?

Not sure what you mean. Some clarification would be great.

My seemingly endless reserves of spare time. One day I hope to discover how I come up with those...

^Endless spare time? Amazing. Sign me up.

Basically it's an imposition that takes patience rather than any sort of inherent quality. I wish I could say I'm naturally patient but I'm still always learning; however natural that may be... I'm just barely diplomatic enough to avoid danger, which clears a LOT of empty space-time to think clearly about what I actually need to do. I'm dealing with the pitfalls of small business some days but it's always worthwhile when I can find at least three days a week to get outside.
