These texts and symbols, these memorials and characters, pyramids and bibles, can be construed to mean nearly anything or everything that pleases anyone's temperament or taste or to support any of the fanatical beliefs which thrive on human credulity. All such interpretations which are prejudged from the beginning are either of little worth or teach nothing at all. Whether ingenious or foolish they diminish the sum of human knowledge--the very opposite of their claim to enlarge it!
