1. Religion is the clearest telescope through which we can behold the beauties of creation, and the good of our Creator.

- William Scott Downey

2. When people try to use religion to address the natural world, science pushes back on it, and religion has to accommodate the results. Beliefs can be permanent, but beliefs can also be flexible. Personally, if I find out my belief is wrong, I change my mind. I think that's a good way to live.

- Lisa Randall

3. We use religion like a trolley-car-we ride on it only while it is going our way.

- Austin O’Malley

4. This dull river has a deep religion of its own; so, let us trust, has the dullest human soul, though, perhaps, unconsciously.

- Nathaniel Hawthorne
