6."Absolute faith corrupts as absolutely as absolute power but absolute power is corrupt only in the hands of the absolutely faithful". – Anonymous
7. "Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense." – Chapman Cohen
8. "When one person suffers from a delusion, it is called insanity. When many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion." – Robert Pirsig
