“Man stands alone in the universe, a unique product of a long, unconscious, impersonal, material process with unique understanding and potentialities. These he owes to no one but himself, and it is to himself that he is responsible. He is not the creature of uncontrollable and undeterminable forces, but is his own master. He can and must decide and manage his own destiny.” MenLongUniverseForceProcessUnderstandingDestinyAtheismMaterialsMastersProductsCreaturesUniqueResponsiblePositive AtheismManageUnconsciousStand AloneUncontrollable Book:Life of the past: an introduction to paleontology Source: Life of the past: an introduction to paleontology
“Man is the result of a purposeless and materialistic process that did not have him in mind. He was not planned.
