"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." -H.P. Lovecraft
What is the final revelation, the "final pill" that will force this outcome on the world?

This coming-together of knowledge Lovecraft is speaking of, has been happening since the beginning of civilization. To suppose that next week this knowledge will lead to our doom is a pessimistic approach to life. The author has no way of knowing the future any more than I do, yet makes this assertion based on what? Fee-Fees?
This is what doing LSD is like.
