Yes indeed. But I'll keep it short.

I recommend the essay "Confessions of a Lonely Atheist" by the Pulitzer-
prize winning science journalist Natalie Angier, who covers much of the
territory of our recent thread.

I also recommend this quote from the Nobel-prize winning physicist Steven
Weinberg, one of the people Angier mentions in her essay:

"With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things
and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things,
that takes religion."

Steven Weinberg, New York Times, April 20, 1999
