Mystical:
"‘Why universe?’ is at present an unanswerable inquiry into the mystical. Though ‘mystical’ sound like a contraction of ‘metaphysical,’ they are not the same. For this reason, I consider all the time spent in speculation regarding the inherently unanswerable to be inherently profitless and a squandering of the opportunity to answer those questions which are answerable by man.
“It is, however, experienced by us that the unanswerables provoke a sensation in us to which we allude-- only intuitively-- as ‘mysterious.’”
