More From E. O. Wilson
- "If history and science have taught us anything, it is that passion and desire are not the same as truth."
- "I thought perhaps it should be recognized that religious people, including fundamentalists, are quite intelligent, many of them are highly educated, and they should be treated with complete respect."
- "But I feel music has a very important role in ritual activity, and that being able to join in musical activity, along with dancing, could have been necessary at a very early stage of human culture."
More In Religion
- "I’m not a religious person, and I’m not too interested in being a part of a religion, but I do like having some sort of communal gathering, and having some sense of peoples."― Ian MacKaye
- "I never found much comfort in overly organized religion of any sort."― Jewel Kilcher
- "But is it not the fact that religion emanates from the nature, from the moral state of the individual? Is it not therefore true that unless the nature be completely exercised, the moral state harmonized, the religion cannot be healthy?"― Harriet Martineau
