READ THIS!!!!!!!!!
I just finished Angels and Demons and this is pretty awsome and perfect if i do say so myself:
'...What is wrong with the admission that something exists beyond our understanding? The day science substantiates God in a lab is the day people stop needing faith!'
'You mean the day they stop needing the church! Doubt is your last shred of control. It is doubt that brings souls to you. Our need to know that life has meaning. Man's insecurity and need for an enlightened soul assuring him everything is part of a master plan. But the church is not the only enlightened soul on the planet! We all seek God in different ways. What are you afraid of? That God will show himself somewhere other than inside these walls? That people will find him in their own lives and leave your antiquated rituals behind? Religions evolve! The mind find answers, the heart grapples with new truths....God is not some omnipotent authority looking down from above, threatening to throw us into a pit of fire if we disobey. God is the energy that flows through the synapses of our nervous system and the chambers of our hearts! God is in all things!'
('Each of us is a God. Each of us knows all. We need only open our minds to hear our own wisdom.' - Buddha)
