Reading A Tale of a Tub | Alexandria
Read A Tale of a Tub by Jonathan Swift. Skewering religious fanaticism, this biting satire exposes how extremism and tribalism corrupt faith - a warning that echoes loudly today. Swift's genius lies in showing that zealots of all stripes share the same destructive tendencies, even as they claim exclusive truth. The shocker? The more violently we defend our beliefs, the more we prove their fragility.
