Invitation to an Illusion

"Come! Join me in my rock-solid belief. My
God is right. How could he, being perfect
allow me to believe in error? And oh my
art, such music, painting, words you'll
rarely find past or present. My science?
Let's just say it proves almost everything right
now and will soon prove the rest. Such lovely
beliefs-certainties!-I have. You'll be so
happy here with me, with them. Until alas that
day when I and they just, well, up and disappear."
