I don't believe, for instance, that evolutionary biology or any scientific endeavor has much to say about love. I'm sure a lot can be learned about the importance of hormones and their effects on our feelings. But do the bleak implications of evolution have any impact on the love I feel for my family? Do they make me more likely to break the law of flaunt society's expectations of me? No. I simply does not follow that human relationships are meaningless just because we live in a godless universe subject to the natural laws of biology.
Greg Graffin....the songs are universal enough that in ten years time they should still hold up quite well.
Greg GraffinI don't think workaholic is in the dictionary as an affliction, but it's obviously someone who has a disease, and I don't feel diseased by it. I just think that I enjoy life and life has many offerings. I feel lucky to be able to have a forum to share a lot of these ideas.
Greg GraffinAs Iโve said, Iโve never believed in God, which technically makes me an atheist (since the prefix โaโ means โnotโ or โwithoutโ). But I have problems with the word โatheism.โ It defines what someone is not rather than what someone is. It would be like calling me an a-instrumentalist for Bad Religion rather than the bandโs singer. Defining yourself as against something says very little about what you are for.
