A faith that cannot survive collision with the truth is not worth many regrets. -- Arthur C. Clarke

Linear is apparently unable to apply this wisdom to his own beliefs when confronted by numerous others concerning them. I think he just uses the quote for decoration in his signature. Either that or he knows he has a faith that is not worth many regrets since it cannot survive a collision with truth and he is saying so directly. That was the difference between Moses and Pharoah too and we know where that led.
