apply or

["" <puzio1@excite.com>]

I noticed that it is not possible to feed logical connectives to "apply" as, for instance, the following examples



 (apply 'or '(t nil t nil))



 (apply 'and '(t nil t nil))



in emacs LISP because "or" and "and" are special forms as opposed to functions.  When I try these examples, I recieve the error message



 invalid-function #<subr and>



Whilst I can work around this difficulty using "member" or using "eval" and "cons", I wonder if there is a way of doing what I originally intended and directly feeding logical connectives to "apply" (or, for that matter, other functions which take a function as an argument).
