This may come as a shock to you since knowledge is not something you value ... but most fundamental questions have answers determined with a high degree of certainty ... but that does not make them absolute fact.

To quote Einstein:
"As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain, and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality."

Or to quote H.L. Mencken:
"Moral certainty is always a sign of cultural inferiority. .... The truly civilized man is always skeptical and tolerant, in this field as
in all others. His culture is based on "I am not too sure."

Or perhaps Voltaire:
"Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd."
