I agree completely! We don't, will never, understand everything. The difference between people like me and religious people, is that I choose to live with that gap, that uncertainty, while they like to paper over the gap with primitive myths and stories, give it a name, and then pretend that they've understood something. I don't deny the mystery of existence, but I do find the accounts of God given in various religions aesthetically deficient, to say nothing of their manifest absurdity.

RIGHT!! You know it's actually very common sense and even scientific... if you widen the context of any topic being fought about.... the fight dissapears! That's because it becomes clear all is simply opinion or "belief", not fact with a wide enough context. Now, if we can just get people to drop beliefs. :)

For example (see Tom, I'm on topic!!) with a wide enough economic context even Prechter's number could be reached in this POG correction!! -ggg-
