There is that possibility.  PJ does not seem to countenance the
other possibility that his theory is completely wrong.  "New
ideas" are not true because they are new; nor are organizational
mindsets mistaken because a group, over time, has such a firm
conviction.

Just a reminder to readers of this list that PJ's belief in his
martyrdom is not the only explanation for opposition to his
alleged "new ideas."
