The difference between science and religion.
Science requires evidence.
Religion requires wishful thinking.
Scientific progress requires curiosity.
Religion requires cowards.
Science advances human progress.
Religion gets in the way of progress.
Science requires brilliant people who can think.
Religion requires gullible morons who are willing to believe any bullshit if it makes them feel good.
Science is reality.
Religion is fantasy.
Science is a search for truth.
Religion is a dishonest business for assholes who are too lazy to get a real job.
Without science, we would still be living in the Dark Ages.
Religion is for people who never left the Dark Ages.
Without science, we would have never learned who we are or how we got here.
Without religion, biology teachers could do their jobs without being harassed and threatened.
Science makes progress possible.
Religion makes violence possible.
Science ignores religion.
Religion must accommodate science.
Science will last forever because human progress depends on it.
Religion will go extinct because it's bullshit.
"There is a fundamental difference between religion, which is based on authority, and science, which is based on observation and reason. Science will win because it works."
-- Stephen Hawking
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
