"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

Faith is an excuse to believe in bullshit that makes cowardly morons feel good.
"If one must have faith in order to believe something, or believe in something, then the likelihood of that something having any truth or value is considerably diminished."
-- Christopher Hitchens
