Imagine...

Imagine a world in which intellectual honesty was the most prized virtue and people felt bound to qualify even their most confident assertions.

For example...

"Allahu Akhbar- or so we've been told."

"God, supposing he exists, is with us."

"There is no alternative- except, of course, for the one being put forward by my opponents."

There'd be a lot less killing, I think.

I think I'd prefer tolerance of other opinions over diffidence.

No, I'm sticking to my guns. Opinions are the devil.
