" Questions only threaten those who have something-some power, some prestige, some veneer of worldly credibility and control-to lose. You hear all manner of bad metaphor when you start asking discomfiting questions about the reality of how things are as opposed to the promise of what might be. For instance, I've always been bothered by the argument that our wondering and wanderings inevitably send us sliding down that proverbial slippery slope. "
