“Which religion, whose adherents accept the tenets of that religion as the truth about God, does not regard adherents of other faiths as holding imperfect theological notions? If religious belief is important, then to accept more perfect beliefs is to be more perfect.” - David Klinghoffer¹

“Scientism’s dismissals are … self-refuting.

Those dismissals are also vacuous, as if affixing the label non-science to an argument tells us anything meaningful about the strength of the argument. The “it isn’t science” response to contemporary design arguments is neither a reasonable nor a particularly stimulating reply. In such cases, the mathematical/empirical approach has degenerated from a way of thinking into a way of stopping thought, a Procrustean bed for chopping off and discarding whatever doesn’t fit within its narrow confines. ” - Benjamin D. Wiker and Jonathan Witt¹

“The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.” - W. B. Yeats¹

“In our culture, it’s become accepted that men, by their nature, are brutes, jerks or buffoons, while women, by theirs, are loyal, smart and admirable. Men, bad. Women, good. That’s the underlying worldview of the majority of the entertainment, education and even public policy (laws) that surround us. ” - Ms. Candice Watters¹

“As cosmopolitan urbanites, even the conservative among us like to think we are more tolerant, more liberal-minded than backwoods red-state America. And maybe we are. But perhaps this is only because it is easy for us to tolerate neighbors we do not know.” - Paul Gage¹

“You don’t hang on to a belief if it doesn’t hold up in real life.” - Ms. Karen Shablin¹

“Americans are finally beginning to recognize the fatal self-interest at the heart of Planned Parenthood, and the essential lie on which it’s built: While it pretends to be neutral on life and death questions, it only makes big money when large numbers of babies die.” - Alan Sears¹

“The problem with science is not that the naturalistic approach might occasionally be inadequate. The problem is that science would never know any better. This is science’s blind spot. When problems are encountered, theological naturalism assumes that the correct naturalistic solution has not been found. Non-natural phenomena will be interpreted as natural, regardless of how implausible the story becomes….” - Cornelius G. Hunter, Science’s Blind Spot: Unseen Religion of Scientific Naturalism, Brazos Press, 2007, pg. 44-45

“If you’re killing mosquitoes to save people from the West Nile virus, you can count on secular environmentalists to lay down in front of the vapor truck, claiming some potential side effect that might result from the spray, but if birth control deforms fish — backed by the proof of an EPA study — and threatens the drinking supply, mum will be the word.” - George Harden¹

“If, as the editors of Nature claim, our minds are merely the product of materialistic evolution, then the opinion that our minds are merely the product of materialistic evolution is itself just the product of evolution.” - Michael Egnor¹

In other words, if their theory is true, we cannot know it or prove it, because there is no true intelligence to be doing the thinking. It is all just the random interactions of random atoms. In order for rational thought to proceed, we must assume that, whatever is true, materialist philosophy is false.
