First time on here. My apologies if my technique or approach are errant. I agree  most "mystery's" have or will be verified or debunked if ever put to the human test. I believe it was Descartes that said God is in the details. I always loved that quote. Hopefully I attributed it correctly. Back on topic. The unfortunate issue from my perspective is the mass of humanity that do not care. They will not accept or entertain any idea, concept or verifiably fact based information that differs from their current view.  I guess my point is our "civilization" is so broken and the intellect of the average citizen so pathetic, facts and reality are ephemeral concepts open to personal preference and interpretation. I do not say this because I agree with it. I say it because I see no alternative, logical or reasonable way to interpret their behavior.  I find engaging in conversation intolerable now with most people.  It horrifies me how little actual information based/meaningful conversation most people are capable of having. They will say something which sounds interesting. Then when asked for clarification or simply more detail they have nothing. Just smart enough to do whatever job they have. Which amazingly can be very complex jobs. But not smart enough to question their own stance, even when presented with clear irrefutable evidence. Two pet peeves. 1. People who think " I disagree" qualifies as a rebuttal or counter opinion. 2. People who when unable to offer any logical counter respond with "I don't want to talk about it anymore".  Both responses from my perspective mean I need not engage them in conversation in the future. Happy Monday. I wish a whole lot of things could be reimagined. :)
