"My objection to supernatural beliefs is precisely that they miserably fail to do justice to the sublime grandeur of the real world. They represent a narrowing-down from reality, an impoverishment of what the real world has to offer."
Richard Dawkins
Totally agree. I would say my appetite for wonder and my appreciation of the majesty and beauty of nature and the wider universe has only increased since I stopped believing in supernatural things.
ReplyDeleteI love looking up at the stars at night, and just taking in the vast distances and mind-boggling scale of the universe.
