“I expect Hitch would join me in a distinction I have been making lately: that between belief and truth. It’s a comment on our special times that I’d even feel I have to make this distinction. A belief cannot be either proved or disproved. If you wish to believe that invisible flower spirits are causing your string beans to grow, there is no point in my trying to dissuade you, because these entities are invisible and immaterial. Something proposed as a truth can, however, be put to the test. In recent years, people have confused beliefs with truths. From this confusion have come ideologies and dogmas—the characteristic of a dogma being that it’s proposed as an absolute truth and cannot be disputed, and if you try disputing it, you’ll be burned as a heretic.”

–From Margaret Atwood’s “Your Feelings Are No Excuse,” the Atlantic, April 2022.

    Our priorities in this state are so crazy. Freak out about words but happily send kids off to school where a gun-toting 14 year old can slaughter them. Then brag about keeping kids “safe”.
