Well, in my opinion, an agnostic believes that they can form a conclusion of certainty.

They just don't think they've acquired enough information.

I'm just saying the overall condition of humanity is one of uncertainty.

We have a similar outlook.

Yeah, and so I think that the uncertainty is what scares the shit out of people more than anything.

It scares me, I wish I could have my faith.

And that's just it, is that I think that, well, no, I'm just saying that I think that when you admit the uncertainty, I think that's when you really tap into your power

And I think that's when you really start to figure things out.

So I think that we, as a society, need to admit that we have not figured things out and that we have made mistakes.

And that rather than running from that fear of, oh my God, but what's that going to create?

We need to say, look, in order to figure things out, we first have to admit that we haven't figured things out.

And that means that we have to say things are uncertain right now.

And so ultimately, I think that it's just that balance

base human fear of wanting to run from the uncertainty, I think that that's ultimately what drives the political landscape.

Yeah.

It's like religious people, they need certainty.

And in my opinion, they are willing to pull a bag over their eyes.

It ignores some very, very, like to me, very telling facts, archaeological record, et cetera, et cetera.

But then you have the people on the science side where they...

they've used science to quell that need for certainty.
