Belief is so valuable and living that it infuses with life everything it enters! It transforms the fleeting glimmer of transitory life into eternal life, dispelling the transience in it.

Obedience to God is the pathway to the life you really want to live.

God is not willing to do everything, and thus take away our free will and that share of glory which belongs to us.

Beliefs have the power to create and the power to destroy. Human beings have the awesome ability to take any experience of their lives and create a meaning that disempowers them or one that can literally save their lives.

Religion enables us to ignore nothingness and get on with the jobs of life.

An unexamined faith is not worth having, for fundamentalism and uncritical certitude entail the rejection of one of the great human gifts: that of free will, of the liberty to make up our own minds based on evidence and tradition and reason.

I think it makes sense to believe in God, but exactly what decision in your life you make differently because of it, I don't know.

A necessary consequent of religious belief is the attaching ideas of merit to that belief, and of demerit to its absence.

Belief, like love, must be voluntary.

It is psychologically very hard to go through life without the justification, and the hope, provided by religion.
