Blaise Pascal was btfoing the episcopal chruch so hard through a series of letters that he actually stopped replying because the pope actually got asshurt and declared the jansenistes heretics

I like that Blaise Pascal was essentially a catholic calvinist. Plus he threw major shade at Montaigne for writing self-serving, stream of consciousness tripe in the Pensees of all books, which is great.

He ate a cyanide apple without any other suicide preparation while under suspicion as a Top Secret Liability by MI5. Definitely suicide.
Does church count as society? If yes, then this guy.
