"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History
"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini |

In a nutshell:
quote:
Reading this, the world suddenly made sense. I'd been banging my head all summer trying to fathom the President's positive numbers despite certain incontestable facts against him. Things like, oh, not capturing Osama bin Laden, not finding weapons of mass destruction, not creating jobs. Yet somehow his numbers stayed up, and here was the answer. These facts didn't matter. Facts didn't matter. I was a member of the dwindling “reality-based community.” And in the end, or on November 2nd anyway, the faith-based community won.
Wasn't it Archie Bunker who said, "Faith is when you believe in something that nobody in his right mind would believe."
A wise old bigot, was Arch. The out patients came out in force, early last November.
