But the list is growing shorter almost daily, as we develop more and more understanding of the world around us, without having to resort to the feeble "goddidit".Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10564322869387727941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-463445167640495548.post-4281301159918138262018-10-23T13:07:53.077+01:002018-10-23T13:07:53.077+01:00One of the more difficult things for me when inves...One of the more difficult things for me when investigating my beliefs was accepting uncertainty.<br /><br />I had been raised to see the world in quite rigid terms and concepts, and felt a need for certainty in what I believed. Letting go of that certainty felt scary, and I did so quite reluctantly. But accepting that there are many things we cannot know for certain, and thinking instead in terms of probabilities or what is likely vs unlikely (or simply unknown/unknowable) is actually very liberating.<br /><br />It's ok to not know things. It's ok to say, "I don't know". If there are answers to be found, then I can take my time to search for them. But in cases where no one knows, I'm ok with that too. I am no longer afraid of not having answers for things.Thom Jonashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18186346329746839487noreply@blogger.com
