Comment:

No miracle animal appeared on the day that Abraham murdered his son. Yellow tape soon defined the perimeter of the scene. The unquestionable accomplice to the crime could not be found for questioning. The father of faith spent the last of his days under high surveillance in a padded room.

If something doesn't make sense, it isn't real. Those arguments of perfect passion or unassailable judicial review are very pretty, yes, but you ignore their inevitable sand foundations at your own peril. Dogmatism, let alone emotion, will not save you. Reason is your only true hope.

Happy is the knight of faith who sees order in seeming chaos. Secure is the knight of reason who sees the same without a leap into self-delusion.

It is one way to live. Welcome to the rational life.
