| Kantor said: I think part of it is the fact that, as a child, you don't really know very much, and you look around and see all of these grown-ups around you and assume that they know everything. As you mature, you learn more, and you realise that the people around you aren't omniscient. Even the smartest people you know can be wrong, or have no idea what the answer to a question is. As a child, you kind of accept the half-answers that you can be given, but as an adult they frustrate you. The hardest questions (What is the meaning of life? Why are we here? What is love? What caused the creation of the universe? Do we have free will?) don't have answers, so some people just lose all enthusiasm for asking them. Also what Basil said: why ask a feeble human when you can just type the question into Overlord Google? |
Well I didn't mean just verbally asking questions. I meant generally looking for answers which it seems like most people don't do anymore. Maybe I should change the title.
