Charles Darwin on God

The fact of evolution is the backbone of biology, and biology is thus in the peculiar position of being a science founded on an improved theory, is it then a science or faith?

A scientific man ought to have no wishes, no affections,⁠—a mere heart of stone.

Nothing before had ever made me thoroughly realise, though I had read various scientific books, that science consists in grouping facts so that general laws or conclusions may be drawn from them.

I believe that our Heavenly Father invented man because he was disappointed in the monkey.

Mark Twain1835–1910

We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes.

Gene Roddenberry1921–1991

Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense.
