I'd rather be wrong with Dante and Shakespeare and Milton, with Augustine of Hippo and Francis of Assisi, with Dr. Johnson, Blake, and Dostoevsky than right with Voltaire, Rousseau, the Huxleys, Herbert Spencer, H.

That’s why [religion] survives.” PeopleIfsThinkingWellsMadeLyingCasesEternalSorryCuresHeightExceptionFrightenedI'm SorryEternal LifeImmoralityAbjectionPropitiation Author:Christopher Hitchens
