I don't give a shit what you meant when you said that. It was insulting as hell. Asshole.
Not a very intelligent thing to say for someone who's so benevolent that he goes through the trouble of "dumbing things down" for us not-smart folk *hyuk*.

I've personally been taught that once a person achieves true understanding of how the universe works, he becomes enlightened. Your words do not sound like those of an enlightened person, so I can't really believe that you have a true understanding of how the universe works, especially when you're very obviously missing the understanding of the binding factor for any person: Yourself. I've spoken in length elsewhere about my opinion that you can only hope to build upon things that you can do for yourself. Anything else is supported by things done and learned by other people, it is dependent on those things. If your philosophy is dependent on anything you haven't learned for yourself, then it is useless.

Would you know how to survive in the wild? How to make shelter, procure water and food, create fire, etc? You're obviously an educated person, familiar with scientific principals, and theories, and I'd hope somewhere in this you would have come across Maslow's hierarchy of needs. At the top, if I remember correctly, is transcendence. At the bottom are the aforementioned physical needs. How can you really expect to reach the top for yourself if you haven't built the bottom for yourself as well?

You seem to be a scientific example of the age old Christian stereotype of people gazing to the heavens when they should be more focused on what's right in front of them.
