Not Knowing the Answer?

Indeed. But even some well-intentioned and very intelligent people mistakenly make this call (or at least, allude to it). Fritjof Capra comes to mind.

You can always tell because they like to use the word "Quantum". 😆

Personally, I don' t want to have all the answers. I' m a limited and fallible human being, so I know I won' t have all the answers and I am comfortable with that.

Who in the hell wants to know everything? That is a burden I'll leave to God, if ever he exists.

It's those damn dimensions that keep getting in the way and cloud our perceptions, or our levels of perceptions. 😠 😛

Non-locality makes since to me with the studies I've read which opens up many other questions to ponder.

there is a difference between not knowing the answer, and there actually being no answer. if there truly is no answer, then more often than not, it reflects on the false nature of the question itself, or perhaps on out limitations as humans of not being able to understand the answer.

No point.

I continue to learn everyday and I am good with that. I am not content with what I know now, but what the hell would you give a damn about if you knew everything?

that would be my opinion as well. I can't imagine ever being satisfied less there were nothing else to learn, ergo, i want to know everything

"Oh Faustus leave these frivolous demands."

Not quite. The moral is something along the line of: The last result of wisdom stamps it true; He only earns his freedom and existence Who daily conquers them anew.
