Mark and Marsha, Let me start fresh and describe what I'm thinking, as clearly as I can.
There is relative truth in the statement, "the tendency over time for conceptualization to become less useful" is true, IF we add in a missing assumption or corellary or phrase "qua conceptualization". That is, as a narrowing focus or defining label or "pinning down" of reality - a conceptualization of reality, it becomes less "pinnable" the more you examine it. Like a hypothesis of any part of reality, the more you think about it, the bigger it gets. I think the problem for me, is that with enlightenment on the subject, comes the realization that this is a good thing, and not a "less useful" one. In the end, it is the infinite regress of knowledge from inquiry that places us squarely in an open-ended and infinite cosmos. A Quality cosmos. Whereas if things were really reducible to machine-perfect precision? We'd be living in a machine, part of the machinery.
