Longitude and latitude are used as coordinates to find places on the Earth without having to use a name. (Say, perhaps you're in the ocean and there's nothing that can be referenced)

It's similar to using x and y coordinates to locate points on a 2D plane in math, except the grid is wrapped around the Earth.

Longitude is vertical and measures how far left or right you are (from the prime meridian)
Latitude is horizontal and measures how far up or down you are (from the poles/equator)

Another reason for this compulsiveness is the necessity to be accepted or part of a group or some social relationship. No matter the reason, the "buyer's remorse" comes when the individual realizes that the object cannot fulfill the emptiness.

According to Tillich, humans are creatures that would always experience concerns from various aspects of our live (money, relationship, etc)
He believed that religion is a form of ultimate concern because it requires you to do total surrender to an entity that you've never met before.
