We Are Now In The 21st Century:

Perhaps One Day We Will Do “everything That We Can To Protect Our People And The Timeless Values That We Stand For.” But Today, We Won’t Even Honestly Describe The Motivations Of Our Enemies. And In The Act Of Lying To Ourselves, We Continue To Pay Lip Service To The Very Delusions That Empower Them.

Religious Faith Is The Only Area Of Discourse Where Immunity Through Conversation Is Considered Noble . It's The Only Area Of Our Lives Where Someone Can Win Points For Saying, "there's Nothing That You Can Do To Change My Mind And I'm Taking No State Of The World Ultimately Into Account In Believing What I Believe. There's Nothing To Change About The World That Would Cause Me To Revise My Beliefs.

Human Well-being Is Not A Random Phenomenon. It Depends On Many Factors - Ranging From Genetics And Neurobiology To Sociology And Economics. But, Clearly, There Are Scientific Truths To Be Known About How We Can Flourish In This World. Wherever We Can Have An Impact On The Well-being Of Others, Questions Of Morality Apply.

We Rely On Faith Only In The Context Of Claims For Which There Is No Sufficient Sensory Or Logical Evidence.

There Is No Question But That Nominally Religious Scientists Like Francis Collins And Kenneth R. Miller Are Doing Lasting Harm To Our Discourse By The Accommodations They Have Made To Religious Irrationality.
