Pretty Sure Of Uncertainty

There have been a lot of jokes made about ideas of uncertainty.  I would like to remind you that you can be pretty sure of things even though you are uncertain, that you don’t have to be so in-the-middle, in fact not at all in-the-middle.  People say to me, “Well, how can you teach your children what is right and wrong if you don’t know?”  Because I’m pretty sure of what’s right and wrong.  I’m not absolutely sure;  some experiences may change my mind.  But I know what I would expect to teach them.  But, of course, a child won’t learn what you teach him.
