"Magic is just completely fake. It's just another word for lying." -- Penn Jillette, on the random Space Ghost episode that popped up on my playlist
Yeah, you slick conceited asshole. But if you're gonna play those games... so is "literature." So is "culture." Fuck, you probably know some biology, Penn: so is "human perception." All "lies"-- useful, vital ones.
This is a classic example of how a rationalist can be totally factual and completely fucking misled at the same time. -_-
