I dunno about how universal it is, though. It seems, on quick inspection, to lead to nihilism if one isn't careful.

Thanks for the linky.

Yeah, that stuff rattling around between our ears can convince us of things that really aren't. But there are levels of certainty about stuff in the world - everything isn't a question waiting to be answered.

For instance, we learned how to get out of deep recessions long ago. We know the answer. We do not need to ask a question about that. But that knowledge seems to have been willfully discarded.

Saying "questions are more important than answers" strikes me as something that easily can be twisted into a manner of thinking that is very destructive. "Why study? Knowledge isn't important. What can we really know anyway? Sitting back and asking questions is much more satisfying (and much easier)..."

FWIW. :-)

Cheers,
Scott.
