Most humans are limited to a mental potemkin village. Actually looking at the universe as it is doesn't make the feel awe, it makes them panic and shut down. They're limited to a caricature, typically provided by other humans, in a lovely game of Telephone. It means there's some 100th monkey to gets to decide what all the other monkeys see the world as, almost unconstrained by what the world actually is, but very highly constrained by the extraordinarily limited minds the caricature universe has to fit into.

Which would be fine if the potemkin minds would admit they're limited, instead of chimping out on anyone who sees farther than they do.
