Oh, you touched a thing that bugs me sometimes. Some of people are so definitive, as in they need instant direct “tell me then” answers (which must fit their current level of understanding) and not explorative questions. I find being in a superposition and waiting for things to [not] happen much more insightful and learn-able than requesting explanations right here right now, as it doesn’t fixate your thinking. I don’t want to bait a flame here, but I came to a conclusion that widespread religion is a consequence of this. People are uncomfortable when things are unexplained and when thought experiments bring more and more hard questions to the table. God may exist or not, and that’s an interesting question, but for them it is not the question, but just a way to clear the table once and forever. (It’s not about all religious people, and I have enough counterexamples, but few of my close links fell to goddidit pit under heavy indoctrination pressure.) |
