[Lonesome in Massachussets]

I like John Derbyshire’s analogy of the universe of knowledge as a vast dark place, and all of our modern science shining a small circle of light around a tiny patch, bright nearest to the light (Newtonian mechanics, for instance), but very dim at the edges, and only illuminating the smallest corner.

[no-to-illegals]

While knowledge is the basis of facts, facts are always elusive and nearly never conclusive. Humanity is a wanderers voyage, and few ever gain knowledge to secure a place to fully understand said voyage (through the eye of the needle?). Have heard death grants a particular knowledge, though who wants or desires death if knowledge is the quest of life, and life exists for the quest? If death is not the answer to attainment of all knowledge, then why do people worship at the alter of death? Would go on and on, but words are boring. Death would tell us, more than likely, there is an ongoing quest by life for living. Pray I didn't bore you, for opinions are all which are known till a life altering event or death, and there maybe is an option number three? Life is three dimensional or perhaps four or five dimensional, so questions maybe are our ultimate quest, if knowledge is contained in the questioning? (imho and smiles)
