Religion is like language or dress. We gravitate toward the practices with which we were raised. In the end, though, we are all proclaiming the same thing. That life has meaning. That we are grateful for the power that created us. (Dan Brown, "Angels and Demons")
Science and religion are not at odds. Science is simply too young to understand. (Dan Brown, "Angels and Demons")
Skepticism has become a virtue. Cynicism and demand for proof has become enlightened thought. Is it any wonder that humans now feel more depressed and defeated than they have at any point in human history? (Dan Brown, "Angels and Demons")
