Well, most men have bound their eyes with one or another handkerchief, and attached themselves to some one of these communities of opinion. This conformity makes them not false in a few particulars, authors of a few lies, but false in all particulars. Their every truth is not quite true. Their two ...

The lecturer on aesthetics to whom Cannon referred in your post above, who went to prison for formerly capital crimes with members of the nobility, was surely Oscar Wilde.

First of all the Testimony of Three Witnesses is all about an angel and the voice of God. It goes out of its way to say that the plates were shown to the w...

Peterson is making a plug for Intelligent Design. He's representing this mysterious monolith as a clear analog of that good old pocket watch that you find on a moor and from which you infer a watchmaker. The monolith has been recognised by everyone as an artificial product even though nobody knows w...
