Dallin, Good questions! Not acknowledging / wanting to live within our limits may explain several of these:
Racism
Created / Creator
Body misbehaving
Love being hard to practive
Evit in the name of religion or not
Fame and forture
Vote suppression
Food
believe whatever they are told
Presence of God: attributable to God mystery, our createdness
Marriage
Unconditional love
Lying to self and others
Stock market
Ak47
Inhumanity
Mind of God
(But then one has to ask why we seem unable to live within limits.)
Trump: not sure
Homosexuals: not sure
Marijuana: ?
Term limits ?
Post office ?
Insomnia ?
Human sexuality ?
Music: mystery of God / humans
Great questions, Dallin! Each one could — and most of them have — create(d) a Quora-type thread.
Loved this!
