"Our belief is not a belief. Our principles are not a faith. We do not rely soley upon science and reason, because these are necessary rather than sufficient factors, but we distrust anything that contradicts science or outrages reason. We may differ on many things, but what we respect is free inquiry, openmindedness, and the pursuit of ideas for their own sake."
Christopher Hitchens (b. 1949)

I say - how frightfully well put.
I like Hitch. I don't agree with all his thoughts, but I respect the way he defends his position. A good man.
