dig, the dogmas are infallible.

until they learn flexibility they will remain brittle.

we have many examples of how inflexible dogmas end up changing. they tend either to turn to corruption and/ or to fracture into contending orthodoxies.

think of catholicism and the appearance of luther for an example.

someone is going to show up with a set of principles which reveals a new version of truth. and some will stick with the old orthodoxy and others will cleave to the new one.

A curious approach.
