~ Creatures Of Infinity & The Vanishing Horizon Of Truth ~
I am unsure we can ever know the absolute truth, perhaps because we can affect the/its outcomes, so it constantly shifts, like a receding horizon, forever beyond reach.
It's about the Uncertainty Principle and, perhaps ultimately, infinity. Infinity cannot resolve. There are no initial conditions. It's turtles all the way down as they say.
That's why I think that, if infinity goes into what makes us who and what we are, that makes us very special. It may be that consciousness cannot even happen without it. It may even hint at absolute free will. It makes us so special in fact that it seems kind of tragic that it might be missed, so preoccupied in the day-to-day mundane minutiae that we can be.
