Why? I can't imagine being offended if people today, ignorant of the true motivations, dismissed it as primitive superstition, let alone a thousand years from now when I'm long dead.
- testaccount28 9mo agolook on my works, ye mighty, and dismiss them as mere superstition. did the use of the word "offended" trigger this comment? fine, then i would not take offense. my point is this: i prefer to be remembered by a future that feels it can learn something from the past. it would be sad to me to find out that the people of tomorrow do not regard my contributions.
