“One reason why I recommend the abandonment of religious beliefs is because I think those beliefs are wrong. There is no evidence that our world was created by divine intention, that a god intercedes in human affairs, or that there is life after death. Religion is a hangover from humankind's timorous infancy; it's time for us to walk upright and unafraid, and to take charge of our own lives.” ThinkingWorldHumansReasonBeliefReligiousWalksDivineEvidenceIntentionAffairReason WhyOur WorldHumankindAbandonmentAfter DeathInfancyReligious BeliefHangoverLife After DeathUnafraid Author:Simon LeVay
“Everything that's happening in our world is a function of what is going on inside of people. We are violent in our minds. We are violent with one another. We walk past one another in the street and don't even look nor make eye contact - don't speak. We can be outraged about the missiles and the planes. I'm more outraged that somebody will walk past me in the street and not look me in the face and say good morning.” PeopleWorldMindLooksEyePastFacesSpeakWalksMorningStreetsHappeningsFunctionViolentContactPlanesOur WorldMissilesOutragedEye Contact Author:Iyanla Vanzant
“Snowden is almost preternaturally prepossessing and self-possessed. I think of a novelist whose dream character just walks into his or her head. It must have been like that with you and Snowden.
