No.

As a skeptic, this explanation is probably the most difficult because people tend to believe they are more "alive" than animals but that's actually the best description of my relationship with "choosing", as a philosophical skeptic - I seldom make conscious decisions because I have better things to do than rationalize my preferences.

I'm an explorer of reality - not a seeker of "truth" - and the reason is because in playing with reality, the unknown is the most fun of all of the participants and is infinitely more interesting than the presumed known and the resulting defining of goals based on that presumed knowledge.

At the hands of reality, life flourishes and has flourished for billions of years. At the hands of man, his own life twists, mutates and often chooses death over a life under his thumb. It has shriveled to near oblivion in just a few generations. In short, reality is simply and fundamentally more qualified to do the choosing than am I.

Life is naturally attracted to the fun and interesting and repelled by the no fun and boring and until something more fun and interesting than reality comes along, I'm going to explore, enjoy and play with it, welcoming any unknowns that care to join me. To confine myself to the reality man believes in would be...I don't have the time and wouldn't know where to start if I did. Add my profound repulsion to the very idea and I'd have to put the odds of that ever happening way below "not bloody likely".

That said, I have a question: Are there any "old" skeptics or Pyrrhonists here? I say old because...well...this is a particularly physical little corner of reality and that was what I found most interesting in my own youth.
