You Going To Be A Scientist When

I Don't Profess Any Religion; I Don't Think It's Possible That There Is A God.... My Books Are About Killing God.

I Am A Religious Person, Although I Am Not A Believer.

We Need To Ensure That Children Are Not Forced To Waste Their Time On Barren Rubbish.

My Real Purpose In Telling Middle-school Students Stories Was To Practice Telling Stories. And I Practiced On The Greatest Model Of Storytelling We've Got, Which Is "the Iliad" And "the Odyssey." I Told Those Stories Many, Many Times. And The Way I Would Justify It To The Head Teacher If He Came In Or To Any Parents Who Complained Was, Look, I'm Telling These Great Stories Because They're Part Of Our Cultural Heritage. I Did Believe That.

I Stopped Believing There Was A Power Of Good And A Power Of Evil That Were Outside Us. And I Came To Believe That Good And Evil Are Names For What People Do, Not For What They Are.
