That single sentence contains two completely contradictory ideas.
Seems like you can host 2 contradictory ideas in societies, in words and in your own mind. Its a problem, yet not an issue 🙂
And sections of society have internal battles with reality – those early Sumerians that thought there was more to the heavens than just God – are weirdly similar to the conspiracy nuts who still think the same thing – despite all the knowledge now amassed.
