“Innumerable conditions must be exquisitely optimized for the support of humanity and of civilization. Many of them are highly time variable. Evidence showing that a wide variety of independent conditions all reached optimality during the identical narrow epoch when human beings appeared on the cosmic and terrestrial scene testifies of supernatural design and purpose rather than mere coincidence.” HumansPurposeHumanityHuman BeingsSupportConditionsDesignCivilizationSceneEvidenceIndependentMereWideVarietyCosmicCoincidenceIdenticalVariablesEpoch Author:Hugh Jackman
“It is not true that a man can believe or disbelieve what he will. But it is certain that an active desire to find any proposition true will unconsciously tend to that result by dismissing importunate suggestions which run counter to the belief, and welcoming those which favor it.

“Some sort of belief in all-powerful supernatural beings is common, if not universal. A tendency to obey authority, perhaps especially in children, a tendency to believe what you're told, a tendency to fear your own death, a tendency to wish to see your loved ones who have died, to wish to see them again, a wish to understand where you came from, where the world came from, all these psychological predispositions, under the right cultural conditions, tend to lead to people believing in things for which there is no evidence.” PeopleIfsWorldBelieveChildrenBeliefWishPowerfulCommonConditionsAuthorityEvidenceUniversalDiedTendenciesPsychologicalLoved OnesSupernatural Beings Author:Richard Dawkins
“It is propaganda that people, who had lived a full life of heterosexuality, were married and had children, were denying their real sexuality all that time.
