why you can't argue religion.
"People have dwelt far too long on the fundamentally sterile question of whether the assertions of faith are true or not.
Quite apart from the impossibility of ever proving or refuting the truth of a metaphysical assertion, the very existence of the assertion is a self-evident fact that needs no further proof,
and when a consensus gentium allies itself thereto, then the validity of the statement is proved to just that extent."
Jung, Religion&Alchemy

"You cannot reason a person out of a position he didn't reason himself into in the first place." β Jonathan Swift
