[from The Little Book of Atheist Spirituality; p.30]
"Do I really wish to subject my conscience to a belief (or unbelief) that cannot be verified?
Do I really wish to derive my morals from my metaphysics and measure my duties against my faith?
That would mean giving up a certainty for an uncertainty, an actually existing humanity for an only possibly existing God."
