As Voltaire said, "If there were no God, it would be necessary to invent one."
Who the fuck am I to denigrate a man's belief when he has none to help him & is the only thing giving him determination to face shocking or horrible circumstances?
I think both Science & Religion are beautiful & vital in their own right & resent condecension on the part of Fundamentalists in either camp.
