Though in this world there are phenomena that might justly be termed "strange, " there are no phenomena that cannot -- given sufficient information -- be explained. This is not to suggest that for every effect there is a cause, of course. That is an assumption that we are not prepared to make, less it launch us ineluctably down the path of determinism. This is only to suggest, rather, that there is no "thing" that exists without some relation to at least one other "thing, " and it is the matrix of a "thing's" relationship that determines its meaning in the larger context of the world. Even something strange can be explained by tracing its relational lines of flight, however casual or casual they may be. Dustin Long
About This Quote

There are things in this world that are truly “strange.” Things that seem to defy all the laws of nature, like black holes, or radio bursts, or supernovas. There are hidden things in this world that we don’t understand. However, the reality is that nothing is truly “strange.” There are no “things” that do not have some relation to at least one other “thing,” and it is the matrix of a “thing’s” relationship with other “things” that determines its meaning in the larger context of the world. Even something strange can be explained by tracing its relational lines of flight.
