Critical thinking: Unknown precedes imagination...

We live in the worlds where are filled with less certainty and more uncertainty. When we try to make a single decision, we applied our moral thought, rational thinking and random thought as the factors for decision making.

How do human copes with the progressive event of uncertainty? perhaps we will start from our imagination. Because of imagination, we could come up with the agreement to make good decision for overcoming uncertainty. According to the inductive reasoning, people will always has problems in the future and uncertainty in their mind.

It is the unknown that make us create conceptual idea, so that we can test the idea and eventually theorize the unkonwn. for example germ thoery and evolution theory..

The post that I want to emphasize is the order of two things: unkonwn and imagination.

it is because of the effect of unknonws, hence we have imagination. In other words, unknowns are part of our imagination but not imagination is part of the unknowns.

I don't think we can imaginate something by not knowing the effect or seeing the effect or perhaps false effect.

If you insist on that imagination precedes unknown. it could be either null effect or negative effect. If using negative effect as part of the imagination, I think it wil waste the energy of imagination.
