>To repeat myself: We have hever yet been really modern -- or scientific

One would tend to conclude that the human animal is genetically
incapable of dealing effectively with reality.

"When we run over libraries, persuaded of these principles,
what havoc must we make? If we take in hand any volume of
school metaphysics, for instance; let us ask, 'Does it
contain any abstract reasoning concerning quantity and
number?' No. 'Does it contain any experimental reasoning
concerning matter of fact and existence?' No. Commit it
then to the flames: For it can contain nothing but
sophistry and illusion."
-- Hume
