“The universe is not only stranger than we imagine, it is stranger than we CAN imagine…”
~ J.B.S. Haldane
What’s your relationship with mystery? How do you approach the great unanswerable questions of the universe? Do you ever get confused between empirical evidence and unsubstantiated beliefs?
Wouldn’t it be great to be absolutely certain about everything? To go through life with absolutely no questions or doubts? But then again, one might argue that would take the fun out of it.
Sure, science has lots of answers, and seems to be figuring more things out every day, but c’mon, why is it that only one sock goes missing when you do your laundry? Why does the shortest line at the supermarket usually have someone doing a complicated and time-consuming return? Does the postman really always ring twice?
