Science and religion no more contradict each other than light and electricity. - William Hiram Foulkes It is the test of a good religion whether you can joke about it. - Gilbert Keith Chesterton Science can destroy religion by ignoring it as well as by disproving its tenets. No one ever demonstrated, so far as I am aware, the non-existence of Zeus or Thor - but they have few followers now. - Arthur C. Clarke Where religion is trivialized, one is unlikely to find persecution. - Charles Krauthammer There is no higher religion than human service. To work for the common good is the greatest creed. - Woodrow Wilson Such evil deeds could religion prompt. - Lucretius, De Rerum Natura The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact, non-Westerners never do. - Samuel P. Huntington Difference of religion breeds more quarrels than difference of politics. - Wendell Phillips
