Very elegantly put. But it leads to a wicked thought. Doesn't that make the idea of "causality" and "scientific law" as much a PROJECTION on to the shit that happens as is, say, the idea of deities, sprites, spirits, and other "superstitious" what-not? They're just alternative "language games" for the same thing (stuff-that-happens)? You choose the one that floats your boat best down the shit stream. But the one you choose is not necessarily TRUE, it's just the one that's more or less able to get you from your chosen A to your chosen B?
