Questions that Demand an Answer

Quick, what do you think is the true story of the missing Boeing 777 jet?  There is a theory you expect to be – the right one – don’t you?  Some questions require an answer, at least temporarily, with a belief, an opinion.  Most people will allow their opinion of the missing Boeing 777 to be replaced if and when enough facts surface (yes I know it’s a pun) to cause belief in another scenario.  This is still belief, albeit a much stronger one, unless you actually are there on a boat and see with your own eyes a panel with the plane’s registration number recovered or found somewhere .  But, some will forever cling to their belief saying news sources are in collusion with da di da, or some other such reason.  No matter how strong the evidence is there will always be conspiracy theories, well, at least on the web.

What about metaphysical questions?  Where did I come from?  Where did the universe come from?  Is man innately evil or good?  Did Jesus really rise from the dead?  We all have our opinions.  How can we not?  How many have examined the evidence?  Hmmm.
