Introduction Favourite Quotations: "If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him" .... Voltaire (who I presume was being sarcastic!) "Life - Oblivion's interlude - don't waste it." .... me "Faith in God: An evolutionary strategy providing a highly self-aware species (Man) valuable forbearance in the face of adversity, and likewise, in the face of assured mortality." .... me "Which is it, is Man one of God's blunders, or is God one of Man's?" .... Friedrich Nietzsche "I am allergic to religion. It makes me break out in logic" .... Graham Kendall "All religions are equally sublime to the ignorant, useful to the politician and ridiculous to the philosopher" .... Lucretius. "Believe in me or I'll hurt you - the underlying mantra of Abrahamic faiths." .... me "Consciousness: if I hadn't first-hand experience of it, I'd hardly have believed it possible" .... me "True genius is living so as to carry the spirit of the child into old age" .... A. Huxley
