A truly open mind means forcing our imaginations to conform to the evidence of reality, and not vice versa.

Most people don't base their morality on religion in spite what they say. If you ask people, "If you didn't believe in God, would you go out and kill your neighbour?" Most people will say, "No".

The really important thing is learning how to sceptically question and rely on empirical evidence.

As a scientist, I don't believe anything. Science shouldn't use the word belief. There are things more likely and less likely. Science can say nothing with absolute certainty.

We all trust each other to some extent. We have to rely on experts to some extent, but we should learn to be sceptical.

For the record: Quantum mechanics does not deny the existence of objective reality. Nor does it imply that mere thoughts can change external events. Effects still require causes, so if you want to change the universe, you need to act on it.

The lack of understanding of something is not evidence for God. It's evidence of a lack of understanding.
