Ignorance cannot drive out ignorance; only truth can do that.

Isn't that what SF does?
Yes it does. At its best, that's exactly what it does.

Explaining SF to others, I talk about how Mel White went from speech-writer to the Fundies to thorn in their side. I -- and many -- will always be grateful to him for having this epiphany! He had everything to lose. Why, then, did he ultimately do it?

I'm an outsider...what the hell do I know? BUT. I simply cannot imagine anyone taking such a colossal and life-changing leap out of anything but Truth (and Faith that he'd survive it).
