What We Do In Every Other Area

Any Conception Of Human Well-being You Could Plausibly Have, The Taliban Patently Fails To Maximize It.

Theology Is Now Little More Than A Branch Of Human Ignorance.

You Cannot Take Death For Apostasy Seriously And Be Working For Peace.

Unreason Is Now Ascendant In The United States - In Our Schools, In Our Courts, And In Each Branch Of The Federal Government. Only 28 Percent Of Americans Believe In Evolution; 68 Percent Believe In Satan. Ignorance In This Degree, Concentrated In Both The Head And Belly Of A Lumbering Superpower, Is Now A Problem For The Entire World.

We Do Not Know What Awaits Each Of Us After Death, But We Know That We Will Die. Clearly, It Must Be Possible To Live Ethically-with A Genuine Concern For The Happiness Of Other Sentient Beings-without Presuming To Know Things About Which We Are Patently Ignorant. Consider It: Every Person You Have Ever Met, Every Person You Will Pass In The Street Today, Is Going To Die. Living Long Enough, Each Will Suffer The Loss Of His Friends And Family. All Are Going To Lose Everything They Love In This World. Why Would One Want To Be Anything But Kind To Them In The Meantime?
