Moral Dilemmas 7

Mike StoneContemplative

Sometimes I wonder what I really know for sure.

I'm not so sure that what I think I know for sure is really true.

I don't even believe for certain that what I believe is what is.

I know that my knowledge is grounded in what I believe.

The difference between belief and knowledge Is that in theory belief can't be proven Whereas in theory knowledge can,

Though in practice I probably couldn't do so.

If the picture I form of reality is incomplete And my knowledge is imperfect

And the consequences of my actions are out of my control,

Then why should I care about it?

Why should I try to get it right?

Answer: every moment we must choose or die.

Learn by heart: tap a gap

Sometimes I wonder what I know for sure.
I don't even believe for certain that what I is what is.
