Mysteries of the Unexplained
Thank God not everything in the universe is explained. Some of life's weirdness will someday be understood, some will never be known, and some (probably most) mysteries will turn out to be illusory. The wonder of not knowing for sure is what is celebrated in this Reader's Digest compendium of curious and spooky marvels. It's given me the dubious pleasure of being perplexed by mysteries I wasn't even aware of, like spontaneous human combustion (a human bursts into flames unaccountably and the body consumes itself by its own heat), or stigmata (an affliction that causes people to bleed in the manner of Christ's wounds on certain holy days). Not to mention UFOs and ball lightning and the usual oddities.
