The madness of attempting to make sense of the world lies in the fact that much of the world does not "make sense".
That is to say, less tautologically, that the world is broken and unless one's view accounts for this, the world will not make sense. This is why economic theories from the left and right collapse when translated from theory to practice; why political systems fail to fulfill their promises of security and prosperity; why religion does not bring internal or relational peace; why mutually beneficial relationships dissolve; and why even ambitions completely within the apparent ability, power, and means of an individual go unfulfilled.
