Wittgenstein

"A sure characteristic of religious statements is that their mistakes are too big simply to be called errors. Being incalculable blunders, one is driven to ask if they may not have their own kind of meaning. As Wittgenstein notes, if I said 22 + 22 = 45  an observer would respond, "He is in error." But if I said 22 + 22 = 3,000,000 the observer would either think me crazy or working within a system of meaning he did not grasp. Many religious statements are of that sort; they are too wild simply to be called errors. They either are incalculable blunders, or they contain a special sort of meaning."
