“..the agreement of all the parts of a story does not prove that story to be true, because the parts may agree, and the whole may be false; secondly, that the disagreement of the parts of a story proves the whole cannot be true. The agreement does not prove true, but the disagreement proves falsehood positively.”
Paine basically said -ve plus -ve doth not make +ve; and +ve plus -ve make -ve.
