beliefs

Perhaps we don__ progress, because there are so many views _ so many paths to peace and happiness _ that we get hung up on each path__ differences. Trying to sort out right from wrong when the rights mean so much to us that we can__ look at them objectively.

The notion that the only way you can critically engage with a person__ ideas is to take a shot at them, is to be openly critical _ this is actually nonsense. Some of the most effective ways in which you deal with someone__ idea are to treat them completely at face value, and with an enormous amount of respect. That__ actually a faster way to engage with what they__e getting at than to lob grenades in their direction_If you__e going to hold someone to what they believe, make sure you accurately represent what they believe.

Hey, ghosts are nothing to laugh at! Whether or not you believe in them, they__e out there. I__e seen them. I__e even heard them.

Hope is a Heaven to keep you out of Hell. It's hard work believing that it's there.

We may not be able to change the reality but we can change how our minds see and store it.

Belief consists in accepting the affirmations of the soul; unbelief, in denying them.

Am I corrupted if I believe that the people who think alike are more admirable and estimable than those who think for themselves? If no one thought differently, then where would our innovations come from? How would we ever advance beyond the status quo? Corruption isn't just moral or ethical in nature--rust is a form of corruption, one that eats away at its host like a parasite, constantly making it less than it was the day before. The belief that they should hold in greater esteem those who think alike is a form of rust, something that doesn't allow our young people to grow beyond the limitations already established by those who do think alike.

You don't see the world as it is, you see it,as you are.

There's a school of thought today that rejects patriotism. People are made nervous by that intense allegiance to a country. They think it can only lead to war and bloodshed and that fights can be avoided if we all just compromise and get along. And, of course, compromise and getting along are great things as long as you're not sacrificing essential values. But I believe there's a line in the sand, some things that you have to be willing to stand up for, even if it means trouble. Charlie's patriotism is not blind, flag-waving jingoism: it's an intense allegiance to the American concept of liberty. He's through and through. He can talk about it and explain it. And he's shown he's willing to give everything for it. I admire him for that.

When in 1863 Thomas Huxley coined the phrase 'Man's Place in Nature,' it was to name a short collection of his essays applying to man Darwin's theory of evolution. The Origin of Species had been published only four years before, and the thesis that man was literally a part of nature, rather than an earthy vessel charged with some sublimer stuff, was so novel and so offensive to current metaphysics that it needed the most vigorous defense. Half the civilized world was rudely shocked, the other half skeptically amused.Nearly a century has passed since the Origin shattered the complacency of the Victorian world and initiated what may be called the Darwinian revolution, an upheaval of man's ideas comparable to and probably exceeding in significance the revolution that issued from Copernicus's demonstration that the earth moves around the sun. The theory of evolution was but one of many factors contributing to the destruction of the ancient beliefs; it only toppled over what had already been weakened by centuries of decay, rendered suspect by the assaults of many intellectual disciplines; but it marked the beginning of the end of the era of faith.

Always be respectful and open-minded when listening to another man's beliefs. What you reject today could be your mantra tomorrow. Man's evolution is all about transformations. An unexpected experience you have one day can change you forever.

Guilt, fear, sin, doubt. Guilt, fear, sin, doubt. Guilt, fear, sin, doubt. That__ what religion is all about.

Speaking to a 'non-theist', 'How do you what you don't believe in if you have never read the Bible?'".

I'm kind of an evangelical atheist.
