Fear of Unkown vs Fear of Absolute Knowledge
If I was asked if I wanted to know with one hundred percent certainty if god existed would I say yes? With much thought and debate, my final answer would be no. Although I always talk about fear of the unknown and how knowledge can eliminate elements of anxiety I wish to live my life by own rules. The value of choice in this world is what defines us as a species. I do not ever want to be ‘standardized’. I love who Ari Garvett is and what my name is associated with and to know that it could possibly be taken away by absolute knowledge is the scariest fact of them all.
