The opposite of a correct statement is an incorrect statement. The opposite of a profound truth is another profound truth (Niels Bohr).” By this, he means that we require a larger reading of the human past, of our relations with each other, the universe and God, a retelling of our older tales to encompass many truths and to let us grow with change.
