"If I were not an atheist, I would believe in a God who would choose to save people on the basis of the totality of their lives and not the pattern of their words. I think he would prefer an honest and righteous atheist to a TV preacher whose every word is God, God, God, and whose every deed is foul, foul, foul." -- Isaac Asimov
Too awesome. Asimov is one of humanity's prime specimens, methinks.
ReplyDeleteYep, Isaac's the bomb, and always has been in my book. One of the first authors I read growing up.
ReplyDeleteI've read *lots* of his stuff. Without Asimov I think I'd be a very different person today.
