I can prove The Truth
Although the moon is smaller than the Earth, it is farther away.
(It's always merely a matter of Which 'Beliefs' you're willing to band together for, to kill all the Deniers about. Any old century Any old Truth will serve sanctimonious Righteousness and cha cha cha)
I, [link|http://www.setileague.org/editor/brunoalt.htm| Giordano], secure in the Certain knowledge that My President takes his CinC Orders from Gawd. I Know where the Buck Stops, now. (Screw the anointment [oil] - it's all about Myrrh.)
Let us prey.
The folly of mistaking a paradox for a discovery, a metaphor for a proof, a torrent of verbiage for a spring of capital truths, and oneself for an oracle, is inborn in us.
Paul Valery, 1895
