What is your opinion of the idea that the dangers we face may lie beyond our understanding?

Question

I just need some idea's, please help me out. I'm not that good at writing essays.

Answer 1

Lemmings must have the same question as they race toward the cliff-side.

If this is your essay topic, good grief. The word "may" and "beyond understanding" create a real issue for writing a well formed essay.

I think I would approach this essay with the thought ...all things lie beyond our understanding, if we dig deep enough. That is the entire point of human developement, things change happenstance. Evolutionary mutations, the nature of unintended consequences, it all is beyond rational thought, even death.

Answer 2

There is another track you can take, the religious idea that we cannot understand God's ways, and that all is in accordance with God's plan, and we must try to not "lean on our own understanding".

Answer 3

Answer 4
