I'm not like Eliezer, I don't seek to be right because I have some beautiful vision of the future I have to actualize. I'm not as smart as him, and I lack his willpower. I only seek to be right because I hate being wrong. Which means that for my purposes drugs are unproductive and religion is counterproductive.
