Skepticism is a virtue in history as well as in philosophy.

In the old dramas it was love that had to be sacrificed to painful duty. In the modern instance the sacrifice is at the shrine of what William James called the Bitch Goddess, Success. Love is to be abandoned for the stern pursuit of newspaper notoriety and dollars.

The intangible, as you can guess, creates some decidedly strange and perceived dichotomies for scientific interpretations.

A man can be a hero if he is a scientist, or a soldier, or a drug addict, or a disc jockey, or a crummy mediocre politician. A man can be a hero because he suffers and despairs; or because he thinks logically and analytically; or because he is sensitive; or because he is cruel. Wealth establishes a man as a hero, and so does poverty. Virtually any circumstance in a man's life will make him a hero to some group of people and has a mythic rendering in the culture -- in literature, art, theater, or the daily newspapers.

Andrea Dworkin
