I was just sort of wrapping my head around the isotropic homogeneous model, and now this. Oh well, we will all die in ignorance. But we certainly know more than the nomads 6000 years ago. I guess it's all relative.

Far from ignorance, if one has paid attention. In the larger view, yes all we have are flawed stories, products of impressive but limited primate brains.

When it comes to cosmology and astronomy in general, in our day we've been privileged to be able to see things that our grandfathers didn't even imagine. Farther away and in better detail, with new discoveries appearing all the time. We're far from fully understanding what we see. However people continue to enlarge our understanding, which is cheering and for some, pleasantly exciting.
