"You knew that going in."
well.. I knew that is WAS an assertion...*grin*..."poppycock" is a subjective judgment. In many ways "why is there something?" IS the logically prior question, even if is is not the usual place folks start.. epistemological questions about "how can we KNOW stuff?" are more often cited as the place to start. (Kant and others thought so.)
(I hope you realize how much is buried in that assertion "There is no "All" there."... I think I agree about the 'in betweens', thought we may not agree about the categories)... and...hmmmm.. what we do is 'affect' our own destinies. (Congress may be a fine example of the attempt.)
