Fundamental Errors

I am about to reconstruct Knatz.com's biographical materials on pk's schooling, training, indoctrination here. I begin though with an insert from the original on epistemological flaws that should perhaps stand alone:

from 1995 September

Our political liabilities relate to our epistemological flaws.
They in turn stem from fundamental religious and cosmological errors.
I've devoted my writing and teaching to correcting them.
That I have had more obstruction than help from our basic institutions
— state, church, media, universities ... —
doesn't bode well for our chances of survival.

Worst, I find the public no better.
