worldwide," Munich theologian Wolfhart Pannenberg told

'Realism is seductive because once you have accepted the reasonable
notion that you should base your actions on reality, you are too often
led to accept, without much questioning, someone else's version of what
that reality is. It is a crucial act of independent thinking to be
skeptical of someone else's description of reality.'-

Well, you haven't got me worried yet. I wouldn't swap my peace of mind
for the most beautiful fool's hat in the world. Even one with bells on.
