46. No, in some peoples' worlds they don't. Sucks to be them.
There are mysteries and there are wonders, for atheists and believers and scientists and scholars, and these sometimes have "scientific" explanations.
But these explanations often are developed to satisfy some urgent need to "explain", as if the unexplainable is uncomfortable for them. So, they pour hours and hours writing treatises about how observable evidence exists to explain every phenomenon that can be named. Now am I talking about science, or could it be something else? What is it with people that everything needs an explanation? ![]() |
