The Truth Needs No Embellishment Or A Holy Introduction

One thing which seems to be constant is that the more flowery the pitch the more suspect the message and that is whether someone is selling a high yield investment or snake oil or a religion.A religious book of course is never written on ordinary paper or left unembellished but is invariably written in beautiful script with pictures and designs just like the images at the circus.By contrast a physics paper is written in plain language but contains far more information than a religious tract.Religious books also mention that they are holy right on the cover just in case there is any doubt just like any charlatan proclaims he is the greatest showman on earth.A sort of book report right in the title.Contrariwise a truly honest and wise man or woman does not need special clothes to proclaim their wisdom.Religions are overcompensating for a known weakness therefore the elaborate garb and literature.
