But I think this is really, really important because if you don't start with the notion that there is a reality and the reality is good, that it has some kind of intelligibility, et cetera. Oh, but actually now I'm interrupting myself. Let me just say this. Niels Bohr, here's the humility. Niels Bohr was like the man, incredible physicist.

He never spoke of the laws of nature, never spoke of them because he was humble. And people use the word laws of nature, but the fact is there's no proof that these are laws. I mean, first of all, our horizon is tiny. Are the same laws 10 billion light years away? You know, whatever. Okay. But second, he spoke about regularities of phenomena, right?

So here we have someone who's genuinely understanding laws. you know, nuclear physics, which, I mean, we're talking about, you know, 10 to the minus 23rd or something, just like stuff that you, I mean, you can't see these things. You can see the effects of them and so forth. And so he's making advances, but he has this humility.

And now we're getting down to some really fundamental questions. And so I'm going to take a little shift here. Douglas Murray's book, The War on the West, he's got this wonderful passage where he says, you can stand in front of a painting and you can look at it and you can say, hmm, this peculiar blue pigment, was that sourced from some country that was in poverty?

Was the apprentice who stretched the canvas paid money? Are the fibers, did they get, so you can, in other words, you can, you can, to use a, this isn't quite the right word, like deconstruct. In other words. Close enough. Yeah, you can, and what I realized in reading that passage is there's no end to it. I mean, I can look and say, no, you know, you're wearing this suit, Dr. Peterson.
