“...when dogma enters the brain, all intellectual activity ceases. ”

“The Fundamentalist Christians have told me that I am a slave of Satan and should have my demons expelled with an exorcism. The Fundamentalist Materialists inform me that I am a liar, charlatan, fraud and scoundrel. Aside from this minor difference, the letters are astoundingly similar. Both groups share the same crusading zeal and the same lack of humor, charity and common human decency. These intolerable cults have served to confirm me in my agnosticism by presenting further evidence to support my contention that when dogma enters the brain, all intellectual activity ceases.”

“Science has nothing to do with any dogma. Science ceases to exist when there is a dogma.”

“When scientific conversations cease, then dogma rather than knowledge begins to rule the day.”

“When you rest, realize it is not simply ceasing from activity…it is a gift from God.”

“All growth depends upon activity. There is no development physically or intellectually without effort, and effort means work.”
