Ignore it, and an opportunity is gone forever.

It's like miracles and I believe in them.

John B. S. HaldaneWhen we stop believing in gods we can start believing in their stories, I retort. There are of course no such things as miracles, but if there were and so tomorrow we woke up to find no more believers on earth, no more devout Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Jews, why then, sure the beauty of the stories would be a thing we could focus on because they wouldn't be dangerous any more, they would become capable of compelling the only belief that leads to truth, that is, the willing, disbelieving of the reader in a well-told tale.

Julie AndrewsI realize the odds, and science, are against me. But science is not the total answer; this I know, this I have learned in my lifetime.

They were not created by pathological people, they were created by those who had attained.
