Excerpt from Vital Lies, Vol. 2: Studies of Some Varieties of Recent Obscurantism
F Modernism, represented by Father Tyrrell's very beautiful posthumous book, has afiorded me an example of how statements admittedly false in the usual sense of that word, may be accepted as true in the sense of truly adapted to certain Spiritual demands. It is in the books of an anthropologist, of all improbable people, that I have found the explicit theory, no longer that opinions may be true because they are desirable, but, on the contrary, that opinions which are false have been and should continue to be fostered because of their usefulness.
