"They fear knowledge. Practical experience shows that when people learn what the theory of evolution really says and what the evidence is they tend to accept it. Therefore fundamentalist pastors have to put the fear of god into their parishioners to get them to think that they'll go to hell for even learning a little bit about science."

"Because the position that they hold is one of fear - fear that any chink in their religious armor will take down their silly house of cards. If one part of their beliefs is complete nonsense then maybe the rest of their beliefs are also nonsense. They lack the courage to face that fact."
