I don't know about you guys, but we human don’t want to accept radical contingency. We want things to have explanations. We want life to have a purpose, chance events to have meaning, and children’s deaths to have a person to blame. We want life to make sense. That's why we can make everything have a reason or purpose.
The way I see it, is that sometimes things do happen for a reason. And sometimes they don’t. That’s life here at the edge of chaos, and I for one enjoy the ride.
