Get the the athenian mercury mug.An old latin phrase, literally translated as "Athanasius against the world". Athanasius of Alexandria (not to be confused with Athanasius Kircher) was a Christian Bishop in the 4th Century who defended Christianity, often supposed as using techniques compared to the modern mafia, against the 'threat' of Arianism.
The phrase, "Athanasius contra mundum" can then be taken as an expression of the need to defend one's ideas, no matter the cost.

I don't want to be Athanasius contra mundum here, but something has to be done about our corrupt local government.

The Athenian Fallacy is a logical fallacy wherein someone takes a positive opinion of something due to one or few highly positive traits, despite those positives being far outweighed by numerous negative traits of a lesser degree. Takes its name from the not-so-democratic democracy of ancient Athens.
Steve: "Wow Athens was a democracy, how great! I mean all the people could vote except women, slaves, freed slaves, foreigners living there, children, men who haven't done military service so like 90% of the population; but still wasn't ancient democracy just so amazing!
Alexios: Dude you're literally committing the Athenian Fallacy!
