Some people need that mental crutch, OK by me. I just don't like it when the religious insist that I need one.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Maybe the "why" is so weird/dumb/strange/trivial that it defies most people's intuitive thinking?

Time to put the other hat on, is it? There is no why, remember. Thinking about a nonexistsent why is probably thinking too much about it. It's a sign of your inefficient intellect.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Well yeah, that's what I'm saying. From what I can gather, it's just not worth thinking about.

To much thinking might undo the fantasy?

To much thinking might undo the fantasy? Not the fantasy.......I think too much thinking would undo the objective reality. My fantasies are safe and secure in my little head. But most people tend to think "objective reality" is more important than fantasizing, so for them, thinking too much would undermine the whole value-structure of their lives. I am very glad that I do not have this problem.

That philosophy should take you far in life. Say, from bread to donuts.

-and yet here you are, thinking about it, commenting about it, not that there is any it, mind you, according to you..and directly after opining that people who think about it were dummies....because you're a troll and the other thread wasn't sparking joy anymore.

To the OP: some of us are intensely curious..."Know thyself"..."Man by nature wants to know"...etc.
