P2609 The gaps
The nature of faith is an afterthought of our relationship with how we accommodate the gaps in our understanding, perhaps a necessity of not letting a question go unanswered, especially if the placeholder isn't all that astute.
Within any framework where it is permitted, we strike out the provisional answers for a more suitable candidate, and at least with science, society moves forward. Any other way, like organized religion, where the hubris of being correct stands in the way and you can't accommodate new evidence in the answer, civilization is set back. It's really that simple.
Stupidity piles up fairly easily and rather quickly, and before you know it, you are wearing a hat, but you don't know why, are too afraid to ask, or, when you do find out, are too alarmed at the anachronism to do anything about it.
But such is life. Schooling doesn't help; it merely takes an opinionated stand. Unless you are willing to jettison the platforms on which you float, you may never know what you're floating on. This is now a lot more pertinent in India, where Darwin is excluded from the class ten biology syllabus. It's not safe to assume that you or I can read beyond the good intentions. In a democracy, once elected, the government is roughly as far from the well being of the population as a monarch. At least now some students may be motivated to find out, but they'd be in the minority.
The expectations that were passed down through indoctrination are now in my stool, and I am now brave enough to battle my moods and stand up to all the deceit in the world. I wonder if that makes me a monkey.
