MORNING MEDITATIONS

******************************

Faith too is a form of insanity. What cold be more insane than to massacre in the name of a "merciful and compassionate" Allah, or to torture and burn heretics in the name of an orthodoxy, or, for that matter, to divide, demoralize and alienate a nation in the name of Antelias or Etchmiadzin?

 

Propaganda is bad enough; what’s even worse is the ease with which people seduce themselves with it.

 

Self-esteem is not a reliable index of worth, in the same way that dogmatism is not an index of certainty.

 

Friendship also consists in unmasking enemies who only pretend to be friends.

 

The danger of ignorance is in its unawareness. If I know that I don’t know, I am harmless because I will concentrate my efforts on educating myself – an activity that can harm no one. But if I don’t know that I don’t know, then I might as well be a blind man negotiating a busy intersection.
