A Modern Reformation theological review essay on Borges and panentheism, quoting "A Defense of Basilides the False" (its own citation of the essay's title in Borges: Selected Non-Fictions) directly in translation: "Had Alexandria triumphed and not Rome, the extravagant and muddled stories that I have summarized here would be coherent, majestic, and perfectly ordinary." Used here for the essay's own closing argument and its documented alternate English title.
