End of the line

Take any fact you know and ask of it the question "Why is this so?" If the answer you get is "Just because," then look at the fact again and chances are you will see ambiguity and contradictions that you are either choosing to ignore or have given some consideration and discarded as being improbable , or that you were not willing or able to get into at the time you accepted the fact as fact.

I realize that with the limited time that we have on a daily basis it is impossible to fully examine every thing that we hold as true and to be able to completly anaylze all we know. We do have to assume many things are true and work on the things that we can when we have the time. But more often than not we don't have the time to consider anything. I think that's why this blog has been so good for me. Having access to the Internet and being able to take a few minutes at a time to take down a thought and however briefly analyze it has been mentally cathartic. There are many more questions I would like answered and I haven't explored the questions I have posted in nearly enough depth, but at least I have posted them. I will get them closer to the end of the line whenever I can and I'm grateful for the forum.
