"The 20th century gave rise to one of the greatest and most distressing paradoxes of human history: that the greatest intolerance and violence of that century were practiced by those who believed that religion caused intolerance and violence."
- Alister McGrath, “The Twilight of Atheism: The Rise and Fall of Disbelief in the Modern World”
"Religion is not just a temporary thing that helped us adapt to our environment. Rather it is a permanent and central aspect of the human condition."
- Timothy Keller, “The Reason for God” (pg.6)
"In our times, spiritual renewal is taking place among friends, in conversation, with trust and through mutual learning."
- Diana Butler Bass (When Spirituality and Religion Collide)
