• La religión es como nuestro apéndice, un vestigio de un pasado primitivo. Tal vez dentro de unos milenios el dios de Abraham suscite la misma curiosa diversión que suscitan hoy los dioses de la lluvia y del sol. O tal vez nuestro dios simplemente sea archivado junto con Zeus y Júpiter. Algún día. Pero hasta entonces, sufrimos las consecuencias de una población que cree en ausencia de pruebas y, lo que es más curioso, rechaza una realidad objetiva que entra en conflicto con creencias fácilmente demostrables como falsas.

• A large body of people, sufficient to make a nation, have come to the conclusion that they will have a government of a certain form. Who denies them the right?

• From space travel to organ transplants, one of the most important influences shaping the modern world is science. Amazingly, people who lived during the Civil War had more in common with Abraham than with us. If Christians are going to speak to that world and interact with it responsibly, they must interact with science.
