By the way, I agree with your point. Some people seem so keen on adopting world views and personal philosophies which, rather than enable them in their lives, instead disable them (f.ex "we won't ever know the truth truth so the search for it is futile"). That always seemed tremendously stupid as well as philosophically cheap to me.
