Faith Enables Many Of Us To Endure

If Faith Is What You Have To Go On, If Faith Is The Link Between Your Beliefs And The World At Large, Your Beliefs Are Very Likely To Be Wrong. Beliefs Can Be Right Or Wrong. If You Believe You Can Fly, That Belief Is Only True If Indeed You Can Fly. Somebody Who Thinks He Can Fly, And Is Wrong About It, Will Eventually Discover There's A Problem With His View Of The World.

Science Does Not Limit Itself Merely To What Is Currently Verifiable. But It Is Interested In Questions That Are Potentially Verifiable (or, Rather, Falsifiable).

How We Pay Attention To The Present Moment...determin Es The Character Of Our Experience And...the Quality Of Our Lives.

The Problem Is That Religion Tends To Give People Bad Reasons To Be Good.

The Conflict Between Religion And Science Is Inherent And (very Nearly) Zero-sum. The Success Of Science Often Comes At The Expense Of Religious Dogma; The Maintenance Of Religious Dogma Always Comes At The Expense Of Science.
