It’s Turtles All the Way Down

It’s Turtles All the Way Down

What I’d like to do is scare you…and then offer a bit of hope.  The topic is not something I like to think about much myself, because it induces a sort of peering into the void fear, a philosophical vertigo that leaves me lightheaded.  The core concept is obvious.  But of course, when things are obvious, we stop looking at them, stop seeing them, sometimes to our detriment.
