Definitions

when beings operate mainly on illogics, they are unable to conceive of valid reasons for things or to see that effects are directly caused by things they themselves can control. The inability to observe and find an actual usable why is the downfall of beings and activities. This is factually the why of people not finding whys and using them. The prevalence of historical man's use of "fate," "kismet (fatalism)," superstition, fortune telling, astrology and mysticism confirms this. Having forgotten to keep seed grain for the spring, the farmer starves the following year and when asked why he is starving says it is the gods, that he has sinned or that he failed to make sacrifice. In short, unable to think he says "the why is God." (HCO PL 31 Jan 72)
