Quote for the day

"People attempt to say that we are fundamentalists, too. It sounds clever, but I think it's bound to fail. A fundamentalist is someone who believes in the literal truth of certain text, you're not free not to believe it. But there's not one position that any of us [atheists] hold that's remotely like that. Everything we believe in depends on everything being open to doubt and experiment. If we hold those views very strongly and say that we don't think any other views are valid — a view that isn't in favor of free inquiry and skepticism — that doesn't make us dogmatic. Our belief is in objective scrutiny and evidence — including our own."

Christopher Hitchens
