Arguments hardly affect the faithful- their beliefs have an entirely different foundation.

Ultimate Reality, if such an entity can be postulated, is ineffable.

The attitude of the Church was not as dogmatic as is often assumed. Interpretations of Bible passages had been revised in the light of scientific research before. Everyone regarded the earth as spherical and as freely floating in space though the Bible tells a different story.

I do not see why I should be polite to tyrants, who slobber of humanitarianism and think only of their own petty interests.

So far Unitarian realism claiming to possess positive knowledge about Ultimate Reality has succeeded only by excluding large areas of phenomena or by declaring, without proof, that they could be reduced to basic theory, which, in this connection, means elementary particle physics.

One knows quite well that harmony can be a harmony of appearances.
