Great collage of all the previous video's. This encapsulates a lot of what you are trying to find out. Asking so many important questions at one time is good, however I have been commenting to much and my transparency thing must be a bit annoying, but seriously I am learning something. I could not verbalise these questions in conversation but may be able to tackle these philosophies and ideologies on paper on in the lexical. Any talk of god generally means just listen and look busy.

Re:"Courage to ask uncomfortable questions.."
The important aspect of this point seems to be that such questions are always primordially destabilizing beyond imagination. These questions emanate only from the site of the Other. In other words, one can not ask oneself the very question one symptomatically avoids via the business of asking questions that only serve to pacify one's deepest anxiety/unsettledness.
Surprise!: We mostly run into what disturbs us in the world, not in thought.
Most of the questions in this video aren't unanswerable and the ones that are are only so because they are nonsensical.

Although I enjoy all your vids, this one struck me as far too utopian in its concluding remark. Are you not attempting to promise a better world by way of universalizing your own subjective position? Utube itself shows that neither questions nor answers have priority in this domain of fundamental antagonisms. Is it not clear that the battle over what constitutes an important question, is just as unrelenting as the battle over just what constitutes a satisfactory answer?

You write: Is it not clear that the battle over what constitutes an important question, is just as unrelenting as the battle over just what constitutes a satisfactory answer?" I agree fully. Thanks. Perhaps we all need to ask: what are the most important questions people should be asking themselves and others?
