they get hurt every now and then... As such it is understandable, the slightest
tremor is enough to cause the debilitated structures to collapse.

Quotations
Religion
It is easy to talk on religion, but difficult to practice it.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa

Truth, in matters of religion, is simply the opinion that has survived.
-Oscar Wilde
Do you become spiritual by performing ceremonies and rituals…? Ceremonies and rituals sometimes give a certain sensation, so-called uplift. But they are repetitious, and every sensation that is repeated soon wearies of itself.

-Richard Dawkins
"The God Delusion"
Since ages, there has been a nexus between the religious heads and politicians.
None of them are artists or scientists. Still oppressing and creating conflicts
among people, both have harboured ambitions to become big from the very
beginning. It has made their union so strong that they are inseparable now.
-Deep Trivedi
Perhaps not one religion contains all of the truth of the world. Perhaps every religion contains fragments of the truth, and it is our responsibility to identify those fragments and piece them together.
-Christopher Paolini
"Brisingr"
It does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are 20 gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.
-Thomas Jefferson
