I'd rather be right than rich so it's just as well there wasn't else I'd have to start believing in superstitious mumbo-jumbo and stuff.

Someone living comfortably in a make-believe world has neither reason nor desire to escape. So long as atheism lacks the incentive to grasp even the most basic theological insight, such as the difference between existence and things that have existence, it has no need of hope.

One night a few decades ago, I got caught out in a locally heavy brainstorm and got struck by a bolt of enlightening followed by a clap of ponder.
