"Which came first,
Experience or meaning?"
The above would seem to be the least of all the conundrums humans face. Why, for example, do some people insist only on looking at a few violent incidents to try to discredit one of the largest peaceful protests in history? On the other side of the coin, why people use peaceful aims to try and justify violence is beyond me. Violence breeds only death, and where that leaves everyone is clear. Our experiences will have no meaning if we do not live to have them. There is no conundrum to "live and let live," and to that I would add "love and let love." Why go around and around in a conundrum when God calls us forward?
