Truth is Stranger than Fiction

It's just a lack of critical thinking that leads to such "happens for a reason" conclusions, unless the reason is simply whatever caused the thing to happen. Which is an unremarkable observation. It's gibberish, and sometimes arrogant, especially when the series of events happen at the expense of others.

Indeed, I'm sure the truth is far more intricate and strange than any of the relatively simplistic fictions people come up. We've had but a glimpse of it, which is why some people are so desperate to fill in the gaps with the nearest available horse shit.
