"Why is the US so religious? As someone from Europe, it always struck me how religiously fervent Americans seem to be."

"Have you seen how poor the American education system is? Most of them would struggle to find Mexico on a map."
"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
