Oh, I think we’re ‘meant’ to try and understand everything.
What I’ve learned from science has always deepened my conviction that there is an Intelligent Design behind the material universe.
Yes, but the deeper one delves into the workings of the universe, the more one realizes that it is far weirder than we are even capable of understanding. The way an electron can be in several places at once until it “knows” you’re watching it, for example; then changing its behavior to a more mannered one. I do get the sense that there is some profound mathematical harmony to the universe, but we might need planet-sized brains to even begin to grasp it.
