Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must be silent

Wittgenstein

After all, if there is no God, then God is incalculably the greatest single creation of the human imagination

I only know that I know nothing

Socrates

Few things are likely to be more important...

“...for the twenty-first century than wise faith among the world's religious communities. That calls for fuller understanding, better education, and a commitment to the flourishing of our whole planet.”

Professor David F. Ford

The most beautiful thing...

“...we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand wrapped in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.”

Einstein

When I worship or pray...

“...let me do so to God, never to “my” God…”

The Pope on Atheism

“It is our task always to struggle for the relatively best possible framework of human coexistence in our present day and, in doing so, to overcome anything bad that exists at the time, and to guard against the outbreak of destructive forces…the atheistic systems of modern times are the most frightful examples of passionate religious enthusiasm alienated from its proper identity, and that means a sickness of the human spirit that may be mortal.”

Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, Pope Benedict XVI, Truth and Tolerance: Christian Belief and World Religions, (Ignatius Press, San Francisco, 2005) pp. 257, 258.
