“In a discussion of this kind our interest should be centered not on the weight of the authority but on the weight of the argument. Indeed the authority of those who set out to teach is often an impediment to those who wish to learn. They cease to use their own judgment and regard as gospel whatever is put forward by their chosen teacher.” ShouldKindUseWishInterestTeachTeacherAtheismAuthorityJudgmentArgumentWeightRegardPositive AtheismCeaseChosenDiscussionImpediments Author:Marcus Tullius Cicero
“abroad it is our habit to regard all other travelers in the light of personal and unpardonable grievances.

No selfishness or insecurity kept him from seeing the full extent of her goodeness, as it so often does with the rest of us. That kind of love may only be possible in Abnegation. I do not know.

“In short, evolution is as close to being a scientific fact as is possible for any theory, given that science is open - ended and no one can predict with certainty what may change in the future. The prospect that evolution by natural selection, at least as a broad mechanism, will be overthrown in the future is about as likely as the prospect of finding out some day that the Earth is really flat. Unfortunately, those who regard these scientific facts as a threat to faith have chosen to distort and misrepresent them to the public.” MayFactsEarthReligionGivenNaturalAtheismTheoryEvolutionFindingsRegardThreatChosenCertaintyFlatsBroadsMechanismSelectionNatural SelectionScientific Facts Author:Victor J.
