Frank Herbert said this quote

“ When religion and politics travel in the same cart, the riders believe nothing can stand in their way. Their movements become headlong - faster and faster and faster. They put aside all thoughts of obstacles and forget the precipice does not show itself to the man in a blind rush until it's too late. ”

~ Frank Herbert

The truth always carries the ambiguity of the words used to express it.
