If you mean act even if you may not get the results you want okay, but one always has to have an awareness of the changes, or results you are aiming for otherwise there is chaos.

Where is it written that there has to be order, or that the good guys have to win?

Matthew 5:40-48

King James Version

40 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.

41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.

42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?

48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

"In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order." ~Carl Jung

That is somewhat different from what I am saying. There is no justice, no order, but do it anyway.

Yes, I know that was what you were saying, and it is somewhat different. And I wanted to counter that with something Carl Jung said. Which I happen to agree with Jung, there is a secret order in the disorder.
