Metaphors
If we can accept fallacies in one book as metaphorically true, who's to say that anything is really false, or really true. Think about this line form 1984, by George Orwell: "2 + 2 is only four when The Party says so. If we want, we can simply change 4 and 5 so that 2 + 2 is 5, because nothing really exists outside of the mind. We have control of the minds, so we have control of everything."
Just waxing philisophical
