But where is the denial? You assume the studies eliminate denial. What if... what if our experience of reality is so convoluted the studies are actually reinforcing the denial? Then we'd be so lost in our logic we'd never find the answers to our problems.
We think we know so much. We think we perceive everything there is to perceive. Ha! We perceive virtually NOTHING! ...so so little of what is out there and we think our little sample of perception can be extrapolated into cause and effect. MADNESS, madness I tell you!
