The universe is irrational. It has no explanation. We, as humans, try to impose our rationality on that irrational, unfeeling, uncaring universe. We can't do it of course, but we persevere. That's absurd. It's our constant struggle with that absurdity that defines us as humans, that describes the human condition. Does that help? cheers, frank ps: I may have borrowed bits and pieces of Camus in the above.
