For a little experiment, I decided to let the random button on wikipedia decide my topic for this blog so...
Unfortunately I got a lotta pages about science, so I decided to instead focus my essay on what man should know. This will not be a rant fueled by religion, or a lack of, and rather will be my own musings on horror host voice things man was never meant to know.... But lets steer clear of the Twilight Zone, that omnipotent Billy Mumy child creeps me out far too much. What I am really talking about is how much man wants to know about the true nature of his environment (no pun intended) until the little buggering rational voice in the back of his head begins to arbitrarily decide what is true and whats false, like, well an arbiter, and begins to just reject the possibility, no matter how large. Sometime I think I would be better off being left in the dark, just not when there's vampires around, and not the useless twighlight kind, I mean the unforgiving predators that they were in Bram Stoker's time, about certain question, if for nothing else to continue to allow me to guess at something, to find something to strive for and to find something to find. Part of what prompted this is my recollections of the mass hysteria and wild mass guessing that occurred as a result of a single particle accelerator, some people even willing to believe a botanist over the actual scientists who know what they're doing, perhaps in some foolish, suicidal hope.
