We tend to think of dangers and uncertainties as anomalies in the continuum of life, or irruptions of unpredictable forces into a largely predictable world.

Life is more than matter. If it were just matter, there would be no need for comfort. Matter does not feel comfort or discomfort, beauty or ugliness, love or compassion, joy or sorrow.

If it were just spirit, there would be no need for water, food, or rest. Human life is a combination of both matter and spirit.

You can hit a nail on the head, or cause a machine to do so, and get a fairly predictable result.
