And It's Going to Be Our Undoing
Quote of the Day
With a necessary part of its collective mind, religion looks forward to the destruction of the world. By this I do not mean it 'looks forward' in the purely eschatological sense of anticipating the end. I mean, rather, that it openly or covertly wishes that end to occur. Perhaps half aware that its unsupported arguments are not entirely persuasive, and perhaps uneasy about its onw greedy accumulation of temporal power and wealth, religion has never ceased to proclaim the Apocalypse and the Day of Judgment." ~ Christopher Hitchens, God is Not Great

Violence does not spring from a vacuum. It's born out of other men's violence. It gets nurtured and it grows in a soil of prejudice and of hate and bigotry." ~ Rod Serling
