Quote:Many people say they believe there's a God, but it does not cause them to believe in God.
And for most religion that is sufficient.
Quote:Is uniformity attainable? Millions of innocent men, women, and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined, imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one half the world fools, and the other half hypocrites.
--Thomas Jefferson
