It seems to be easier for humans to stick to either a totally ‘religious’ or totally ‘scientific’ answer as the ‘truth’, than to admit that we don’t know.
“It seems to be easier for humans to stick to either a totally ‘religious’ or totally ‘scientific’ answer as the ‘truth’, than to admit that we don’t know.”
Yes, exactly. There is some kind of personal insecurity suffered by most people that makes them believe they must have some kind “universal answer for everything,” which usually turns out to be some accepted authority, religion, “science” so-called, or some political-philosophical authority.
The few who can be comfortable with the fact that for some things, like origins, whether of life or the universe, at present, we just don’t know.
Glad somebody gets it. Thanks of the comment.
