- Evolution is both theory and fact. Theory in explaining the fossil record and fact in observed changes in the fossil record, and other stuff too.
- It is more likely that all religions are false, than one being true. Although such probability is hardly convincing for the True Believer, it is something that should give believers pause and at least re-examine their beliefs, and compare them to other beliefs. But who am I kidding, not gonna happen.
- We're animals, smart animals, sure, but animals nonetheless. We're not the pinnacle of evolution, just a branch of the evolutionary history, apart from all the other lifeforms on this planet. We're not intrinsically special, we're just smart enough (well some of us anyway) to see our place in this world as part of the natural order of things.
"The first principle is that you must not fool yourself — and you are the easiest person to fool." - Richard P. Feynman
