My thoughts, my beliefs, my feelings are all in my brain. My brain is going to rot.

The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.

...it is a telling fact that, the world over, the vast majority of children follow the religion of their parents rather than any of the other available religions.

There are many religious points of view where the conservation of the world is just as important as it is to scientists.

Even if there were no actual evidence in favor of the Darwinian theory, we should still be justified in preferring it over all rival theories.

No matter how much knowledge and wisdom you acquire during your life, not one jot will be passed on to your children by genetic means. Each new generation starts from scratch.

Science, as opposed to technology, does violence to common sense.
