Suggesting I hate people with religion because I hate religion is like suggesting I hate people with cancer because I hate cancer.
Ricky GervaisItโs a strange myth that atheists have nothing to live for. Itโs the opposite. We have nothing to die for. We have everything to live for.
Ricky GervaisThatโs the other thing I learned that day, that the truth, however shocking or uncomfortable, in the end leads to liberation and dignity.
Ricky GervaisScience seeks the truth. And it does not discriminate. For better or worse it finds things out. Science is humble. It knows what it knows and it knows what it doesnโt know. It bases its conclusions and beliefs on hard evidence -ยญ- evidence that is constantly updated and upgraded. It doesnโt get offended when new facts come along. It embraces the body of knowledge. It doesnโt hold on to medieval practices because they are tradition.
