I can not help but think of the ignorance of a child who has begun to learn.
Learning information gives us the inclination to include that information in our beliefs.
"Because I said so," gets to our bones and boils our blood.
Why did you say so?
What logic do you have to say so?
I think that just saying so is not so.
I know that I could prove saying so is wrong in all senses.
I know that I could prove that if I let my thinking fill my mind and lasso itself. I could come up with some answer to all of these "things".
Now I know why children should be seen and not heard.
As should we.
Silence. Mystery. Confusion. Clarity. Harmony. Shalom.
These things exist for the parts of us that can't be thought through.
Shalom.
