"To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today." ― Isaac Asimov Topic(s): God Tags: ignorance, surrender More From Isaac Asimov "The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom." "Dalton’s records, carefully preserved for a century, were destroyed during the World War II bombing of Manchester. It is not only the living who are killed in war." "I don’t believe in an afterlife, so I don’t have to spend my whole life fearing hell, or fearing heaven even more. For whatever the tortures of hell, I think the boredom of heaven would be even worse." More In God "Every year we celebrate the holy season of Advent, O God. Every year we pray those beautiful prayers of longing and waiting, and sing those lovely songs of hope and promise."― Karl Rahner "You know, it’s ironic to me that Christians want to keep the Ten Commandments in our schools, because Christianity has abrogated four of the Ten Commandments. For example, the Sabbath day according to the Ten Commandments is Saturday, not Sunday. And the reason is because God rested, not because Jesus was resurrected."― Alan Dershowitz "If God is just, I tremble for my country."― Thomas Jefferson
