*No arguments:* Presently, there IS no way of substantiating whether (or NOT) we are not just some holographic projection in a bubble (One of God's favorite movies?). Still, I'd rather hold out for the belief that we have at least *some* degree of self-determination - and efficacy - as *deluded*as that MAY be - however "tethered" that we may indeed be. So yeah, you made a good point.
Perhaps, it is the* repeated* witnessing of the pedantic drivel that the so-called 'pundits' pass off as "informed dialogue," or just the pervasive militant ignorance and over-simplification of the truly complex issues, while invariably "muddling" the otherwise simply stated and resolved, that has me feeling like it's all a waste of breath - an exercise in futility, to try to bring a more heightened sense of "origins" to the public purview. Grant it, recently I've been feeling a bit disillusioned / disheartened, but I really question the "readiness to receive" of our fellow humans... like we're all on a ship of fools... running fool's errands. No, I am NOT suicidal, but admittedly, I'm not my optimistic self nowadays - some might refer to my state as "morose," and I could not fault their assessment, but "one man's garbage...." You know the rest.... *Again, good luck in you searches & deliberations. And I mean that! *> If the rest of humanity were as curious & open-minded as yourselves, maybe I wouldn't be felling this way.
