A PhD graduate and an ordinary man

A PhD graduate and an ordinary man went on a camping trip, set up their tent and fell asleep. Some hours later,
the ordinary man woke up his PhD friend: "Look up and tell me what you see?"

The PhD man replies: "I see millions of stars . " The ordinary man asks: "What does that tell you?"
The PhD guy ponders for a minute, and then spoke:
"Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets .
Astrologically, it tells me that Satan is in Leo .
Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three .
Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all-powerful and we are small and insignificant .
Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow . What does it tell you?"

The ordinary man is silent for a moment, and then speaks:
"Practically . . . . . . . . it tells me that someone has stolen our tent"
