“The only position that leaves me with no cognitive dissonance is atheism. It is not a creed. Death is certain, replacing both the siren-song of Paradise and the dread of Hell.

There is nothing more; but I want nothing more.”

But we have a right to remember how barbarically they behaved when they were strong and were making an offer that people could not refuse.”
