Just A Game Of Make-believe
"I also know that the nature of physical reality is not determined by popular vote. Many people sharing the same delusion does not make the delusion true, whether we're talking about interspecies communication, modern science, Christianity, or capitalism. Think about how many people voted for Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, or Augusto Pinochet, for that matter. Look how many people--including some presumably intelligent ones--spend their lives producing nuclear weapons. Look how many people think money is wealth, and believe land can be bought and sold. It doesn't matter if it isn't true. Remember, this is a game of make-believe. It's a pretty good game, very well constructed; in fact it's so good we've forgotten that it is just a game."Derrik Jensen - A Language Older Than Words
