False notions,
however, may be spread either by a person labouring under error,
or by one who has some particular end in view, and who
establishes theories contrary to the real nature of things, by
denying the existence of things perceived by the senses, or by
affirming the existence of what does not exist. Philosophers are
thus required to establish by proof things which are selfevident,
and to disprove the existence of things which only exist in man's
imagination...
Ideas founded on mere
imagination will prevail over you, >>>>
