its what gave them safety and guidance. strange thing humans.
It gave them neither. Truth wasn't scary, it's not some kind of Lovecraft's hidden lore. Truth was unnecessary for them. They knew better by seeing with their own eyes and reasoning on their own, not believing some Greek nerds. They'd rather be rebellious alphas not told what to think to listen to old guys in togas than people humbly standing on the shoulders of giants in quest for ultimate truth.
For not by numbers of men, nor by measure of body, but by valor of soul is war to be decided.
