Really loved reading the comments, especially PK's note, pointing out that we have the good and the bad in us. Also enjoyed Manasi's comment:
It seems to me that knowlegde conventionally is the pursuit of certainty rather than a willingness to open into the mystery; and very often is the product of an intellect than seeks constant validation of it's usefulness.
Unconventional knowledge is then the pursuit of uncertainty of the subjective kind (as if there's any other). :)
