"For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." - Carl Sagan
One of the better ones.
In every country and every age, the priest had been hostile to Liberty.
- Thomas Jefferson  Quote:Earlier this year, family members said they were pleasantly surprised with his "amazing" recovery despite the absence of treatment. Not so "amazing" after all, it seems. 
Granted, he was a religious asshat, but I knew him personally, I went to school with his daughters and was relatively close to the family back in the day. I had dinner at their house on more than one occasion. For whatever faults he had, he was a true believer and completely sincere, no matter how wrong he was. That, at least, makes him better than most televangelists.
There is nothing demonstrably true that religion can provide mankind that cannot be achieved as well or better through secular means.
