The colour of my soul is iron-grey and sad bats wheel about the steeple of my dreams.

Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it$$$ you'd have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things$$$ it takes religion.

Another curious aspect of the theory of evolution is that everybody thinks he understands it!

I am not an enthusiast for diversity of opinion where facts are concerned.

The world and the universe is an extremely beautiful place$$$ and the more we understand about it the more beautiful does it appear.

It is absolutely safe to say that if you meet somebody who claims not to believe in evolution$$$ that person is ignorant$$$ stupid or insane (or wicked$$$ but I'd rather not consider that).

THE MAJORITY of children born into the world tend to inherit the beliefs of their parents$$$ and that to me is one of the most regrettable facts of them all.

Science replaces private prejudice with public$$$ verifiable evidence.

By all means let's be open-minded$$$ but not so open-minded that our brains drop out.

A poem begins in delight and ends in wisdom.
