“Honestly, which source is less biased; Schaff or the Encyclopedia Britannica?”

This question is a “Category” mistake of logic.

“A category mistake, or category error, is a semantic or ontological error in which things belonging to a particular category are presented as if they belong to a different category” (wiki).

Both items are biased because both are written by people who bring their own biases, educational prejudices, emotional experience filters and presuppositions into their feeling, thinking and writing.

Their biases are *likely* different. Unless you know their backgrounds, emotional experiences, presuppositions, etc., you will not understand how they differ.

This is why regardless of source, the task is to analyze the evidence and not simply react. It is a lifelong task. It is worthy of effort.
