From the Introduction: It is perhaps for this very reason that there is a deep underlying truth to the oft-cited witticism that if there really was a God or Supreme Being he or she would find 'atheism less insulting than religious beliefs.' Why? Because much of our theology is predicated upon a deep-seated hubris: the illusion that our metaphysical conjectures are more than what they really are. . . conjectures! This little book of quotes from free and skeptical thinkers is a healthy antidote to our ingrained conceit that we know more than we do. Seasoned and reasonable doubt, and not blind belief, is the pathway for a deeper understanding of the cosmos.
