Is the concept of absurdity built into reality, unveiling the lack of structure, consistency, purpose and sense at work in the universe? Of course, there is much that seems pointless. The world at times does seem indifferent, even hostile to human existence, let alone caring about what seems to be our meager, short petty lives.
That is ontologically real, and may be a puzzle that cannot be solved, at least wholly. There also is meaning and answers to be grasps by those that seek, wonder, search and care.
Knowing that it makes sense--life that is--may be more important in the long run for people, than concentrating on what makes us suffer and unhappy.
I believe that Fate is, that God is, and the Devil is. With these competing and strangely complementary deities at work in the universe, it becomes obvious to me that ontological meaningfulness and rationality are stronger cosmic forces than are the swirling, opaque forces of cosmic, ontological absurdity that perplex, scare and befuddle us.
