PS: I wanted to add that I may be different than most. You do you. I don't do religion or horoscopes or ghosts or mercury in retrograde or the universe (except physics). When I hear an "answer" my first reaction is #skepticism. I believe that we are beings instinctively motivated by pleasant emotions. I believe all supernatural concepts are invented by humans for emotional reasons. I think that a lot of "this is how things are" talk is supernatural in the sense that it's beyond what we know.

The world is messy. There is no view from nowhere, no perspective that is free from bias. Science sits within social discourses, not outside them (Kuhn).... Evidence has a provenance. It is irrevocably value-laden. Its generation and exchange involve social -- and often political -- processes. Knowledge is not limited to what we can abstract and generalize; it is also situated and embodied.
