OT: "How?" vs "Why?"


We can figure out how trees grow on this planet and how they came to be on this planet but what or who even CAN decide why they grow on this planet?

Or we can take these message boards being shut down as another example.

We can say how it is being shut down and we can say how it came to be being shut down either with short and sweet "The people in charge wanted to shut it down and are doing so." or in great detail reaching back through human history to before atoms and photons existed but as to why they are being shut down, who or what even CAN decide why anything on this planet is happening the way it's happening?

The people in charge can give their reason for shutting the message boards down and you can be satisfied that answers why it's being done but that's no different from asking "Why do trees grow on this planet?" and being satisfied with "Because humans grow them for food."

The 'why' is a question that can never truly be answered, without considering the origins, creations and motivations of the Cosmos and the Entity that created it by forming it in all its dimensions out of itself.

Especially this primitive, non-developed (the original term before the euphemism mill made it nonsensical - underdeveloped, less developed, developing, development, etc..) planet's nihilistic, materialistic, capitalistic 'science' (such as it is here), doesn't even recognize that question as anything legitimate.

People also don't seem to ponder it too much, because it would obviously disturb their daily lives. Why do quantum particles behave so weirdly and subvert common sense and logic so much? I mean, WHY can a quantum particle know the future? (Check the Delayed Quantum Eraser experiments, of course only after you thoroughly understand the Double Slit experiments and photons' weird behaviour and dual nature as waves AND particles - my explanation, of course, is that because the waves exist in higher realm (etheric and astral plane), the particles in this realm simply reflect that in behaviour, but what do I know).

Why does a tree exists is basically the same question as 'why does ANYTHING exist' or 'why does anything exist the way it does'. Why do you exist? How can you even research that? Are we truly separate, or are we actually just part of a massive whole that constantly flows as one, but are only seemingly separated?

It would be cool if hollyfkers could make movies out of these ideas without any kind of agendas or gloomy darkness or lens flares. But their answer to all questions is MONEY and CONTROL, so we'll never see that kind of things explored honestly, until the current financial and power infrastructure and paradigm is dead or at least non-existent, or the very least, non-influencial.

Yes, I used the word 'paradigm'.. you have to add humor into posts sometimes.
