** The ''Tuberculis perennis'' found in Caleb's stomach during the autopsy is a fictitious plant species (and one whose Latin name is absurdly vague for scientific standards, by the way). Why would have he swallowed it whole instead of masticating it is another point.

** Does people who read the Gospel really GoMadFromTheRevelation and no other reason? The fact that all of them react the exact same way (becoming apathetic loons) and speak with identical expressions (calling repeatedly their interlocutors "poor madmen" and rambling about "the death of their faith") despite being people of varied stance and education (from medieval knights to modern priests) implies the gospel actively brainwashes the reader with its supernatural influences rather than this being a natural psychological reaction to its contents. However, no explanation is given on this, and the book's status as a literal cursed item is treated as an ElephantInTheLivingRoom even by the most skeptical characters.
