The Lover Of Lies, Or The Doubter by Lucian of Samosata
A satirical dialogue in which a skeptical narrator listens as a circle of credulous acquaintances trade increasingly outlandish tales of ghosts, witches, omens and miracles; through witty questioning and ironic retellings the narrator exposes human gullibility, mocks superstition and religious hypocrisy, and argues for reason and critical inquiry over fanciful belief.
