"...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 |

| Our system of government requires an educated populous that can weigh out the options. But apparently not many of us want to think about running the government. |
You can go wrong by being too skeptical as readily as by being too trusting. -- Robert A. Heinlein
