Philosophy Wire: Classify that!

A team of evolutionary biologists and ecologists has a new idea for how scientists should classify algae species. [1] Humans. Classifying everything. So that they understand them. So that they make sense. In a cosmos full of chaos and order. Looking only at the calm deep blue of the raging abyss. Only because we are afraid to admit the huge waves coming towards them... And when death comes, so come the doubts of wisdom.

(Tell me father. How can you classify a miracle?)

Algae. Sea.

The cradle of death is where you once used to be.

Unclassified.
