Theology Is Ignorance With Wings.

The Faith Of Religion Is Belief On Insufficient Evidence.

The Science Of Morality Is About Maximizing Psychological And Social Health. It's Really No More Inflammatory Than That.

To Treat Others Ethically Is To Act Out Of Concern For Their Happiness And Suffering.

By Lying, We Deny Others A View Of The World As It Is. Our Dishonesty Not Only Influences The Choices They Make, It Often Determines The Choices They Can Make—and In Ways We Cannot Always Predict. Every Lie Is A Direct Assault Upon The Autonomy Of Those We Lie To.

Lying Is, Almost By Definition, A Refusal To Cooperate With Others. It Condenses A Lack Of Trust And Trustworthiness Into A Single Act. It Is Both A Failure Of Understanding And An Unwillingness To Be Understood. To Lie Is To Recoil From Relationship.
