Who was Robert Anton Wilson?
Robert
prolific American novelist, essayist, philosopher, psychologist,
futurologist, anarchist, and conspiracy theory researcher. His writing,
which often shows a sense of humor and optimism, is described by him as
an "attempt to break down conditioned associations--to look at the
world in a new way, with many models recognized as models (maps) and no
one model elevated to the Truth." And: "My goal is to try to get
people into a state of generalized agnosticism, not agnosticism about
God alone, but agnosticism about everything."
