Of book and sword. Religion and war share much in common. In both the art is to persuade others that what is not, is. In battle you may feign an advance on the left flank before launching your main attack on the right. You may entice the enemy into a defile while you appear to be fleeing from him only to cut him off with an ambush from behind. In religion too, you produce the semblance of one thing while delivering the other. You entice and cut off. In both the fog of war and of religion it is important that the generals have a clear view of the field. They must at all costs avoid being deceived by their own deceptions. It is surprisingly easy, and frequent, for those who are on the point of winning to be persuaded that their cause is lost. Weariness aids the fog. The real difficulty, and consumer of lives, is in trying to persuade the desperate fanatic who, believing his own deceptions, is convinced of inevitable victory though the facts about him proclaim otherwise. Fiction attracts and clings, it seems, more tenaciously than fact in the minds of those inclined to devotion and to arms.
