There is a beautiful bit of clear and easy philosophy in the Old Testament, in Ecclesiastes 8-17, that goes like this: “Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man can- not find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man labour to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yea further; though a wise man think to know it, yet shall he not be able to find it.”
This says that a wise man claims to know the way but not even the wise man can show us the way.
This kind of truth is played out for all of us to watch and listen to everyday when the president goes on television with Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx.
Doctors Fauci and Birx are the nation’s leading epidemiologist.
We should listen to them…and most of us do. But when they have finished with their daily mix of medical facts and fiction, a mixture of what is known and what is unknown about the virus, we are no further down the road toward having a clear understanding of what needs to come next because, frankly, they don’t know.
Facemasks are good. Facemasks don’t stop the virus.
Facemasks are good for those with the virus, not in stopping the virus.
Gloves must be worn.
Gloves must be changed.
Gloves touching any surface must be immediately changed. When we boil this down we come in contact with what we already know – there aren’t enough pairs of gloves in the universe to satisfy our needs for one day.
