"Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions. Ideas must be distinct before reason can act upon them; and no man ever had a distinct idea of the trinity. It is the mere Abracadabra of the mountebanks calling themselves the priests of Jesus."
-Thomas Jefferson, in a letter to Francis Adrian Van der Kemp. July 30, 1816
You can see why I cut it off. As much as I enjoy Jefferson's views on the trinity, it's not a topic I write about much here.
Ridiculing unintelligible propositions, on the other hand, is something I do rather often. Because it's fun.
