* "The Oracle Illusion": Wikipedia

Delphi







Wikipedia, for instance, works on what I  [Jason Lanier]  call the Oracle illusion, in which knowledge of the human authorship of a text is suppressed in order to give the text superhuman validity. Traditional holy books work precisely the same way and present many of the same problems . (kindle, 706+)
