Well...

...It's safe to say no one reads my blog so fortunately I can say what I wish without offending anyone. With that said, how I am feeling right now is inspired by that discontent which rises out of confusion and mistrust of people's judgments and sentiments; why is it so hard to say, I don't know? But even more than this, to succumb to that typical and almost fashionable agnosticism, there seems to be something we know. I mean we know enough to make a statement that we don't know. So maybe, just maybe, what we do know is nothing more than that which is impractical and useless. For if it were practical, all of the practical people would be right all the time. But they are already insufferably arrogant and annoying about their skills and abilities. So that won't do. And besides, practicality assumes some practice. And a practice furthermore assumes something to practice. And having something to practice assumes some reason to practice. And it is this last condition which I have problems with. For reason or purpose are not evident at all. One can not see purpose or reason anywhere in the world. And this goes for usefulness and utility. For this assumes as well that there is a reason to utilize something. And likewise this reason is not present anywhere. Therefore knowledge of anything would be of a sort that we cannot see. And what we cannot see is of a different sort of anything in this world. And so, we can only know of that which exists in a different or separate world from which we live. And I don't mean planet or cosmological location. No! Literally a different world of experience that stands outside of atoms, forces, vacuous outer space and the like. Another world, like that of what we read in myth and fairy tales and religious texts of Heaven. These are the only content of knowledge we can have. And should we be surprised?
