"A great swindle of our time is the assumption that science has made religion obsolete. All science has damaged is the story of Adam and Eve and the story of Jonah and the Whale. Everything else holds up pretty well, particularly the lessons about fairness and gentleness. People who find those lessons irrelevant in the twentieth century are simply using science as an excuse for greed and harshness."

I must have lost the lessons about fairness and gentleness amidst all the smiting. |
People who find that science has made religion irrelevant still know very well about fairness and gentleness and charity. They no longer have to bury those feelings and that wisdom in a grave of religious doctrine. They can let caring for people shine forth with its own glory.
