- Albert Einstein

"It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so, and will follow it by suppressing opposition, subverting all education to seize early the minds of the young, and by killing, locking up, or driving underground all heretics."
-Robert A. Heinlein

Fundamentalists make a grave mistake to insist on the letter of the writings, because they drive away many who can��t swallow the Adam-and-Eve bit."
