Global Warming's New Math

[Ian Livingston]

Quite right. It's appropriate to recall the chorus of the Crusades: "It's
God's will!" As if, I mean, wtf, one of the premises of the various People
of the Book is that God's ways are beyond mortal understanding. One might
suspect the arrogance often associated with poor self-esteem in the
addictive ego structure.

"Less than any man have I  excuse for prejudice; and I feel for all creeds
the warm sympathy of one who has come to learn that even the trust in
reason is a precarious faith, and that we are all fragments of darkness
groping for the sun. I know no more about the ultimates than the simplest
urchin in the streets." -- Will Durant
