    Because we cannot help it.

    Ignorance is bliss. The tree of knowledge of good and evil entails that when the apple has been tasted, we learn that there is both good AND evil. It is about the only thing in the bible that makes any kind of sense in the modern world. I am not a theist, but I can tell you that what you are not aware of is not going to bother you. Just being aware of something, even if it is awareness of possibility, or potential, can turn into an obsession to find a balance, or a relative place for ourselves in a universe of nothing but relativity. How hard can that be anyway, eh? There are *only* an infinite amount of possibilities. We can, at the very least, pat ourselves on the back for knowing that much, but perhaps try not to turn our noses up so high to those that are not aware of such things, for they, in their ignorance, have something that we do not, which is bliss without second thought.

    I will die before I know everything, but I will die knowing that I tried.

    If I ever start talking like that, somebody please kick me down a flight of stairs that aren't carpeted.
