Quotes / Religion

I cannot wait for the day when the scientists of tomorrow look back at the atheists of today and laugh, much in the way that the atheists of today look to the faithful of yesterday and laugh. With disdain, contempt, and arrogance.

Are you saying that science will prove that the bible is right?

Impressive. I wouldn’t change a word. This has power and authority. (and in my opinion, truth)

I really like pieces of literature that make me think. This for sure did. I like this in everyway. But the title didn’t make me want to read it, honestly. But I was happily surprised with what you wrote.

Very thought-provoking! I’d use the word “faithful” rather than “laity,” as laity describes strictly the non-ordained, and it seems to me that the clergy would be included in the contemptuous looks. I can see this as the prologue to a very interesting novel or short story set in the future! (Hint, hint)

The logic in this assumes that it will be proven by scientists that there is a god(s) and religion is necessary in some future time beyond a doubt and that is wishful thinking; and the obvious contempt that is felt for atheists shows a lack of ecumenical thinking that embraces the right for each and everyone to hold to their own beliefs, whatever they may be. Is there really only one way or belief, which is implied in this quote? And which religion will the scientists prove to be the true religion?

I like where you went with this.  It shows the change of the world in a simple way.  People look back at years before and realize the changes.  I think that you captured it well.

I like your message and think your right, after all in the long run what is the difference between atheism and sciene anyway?

This quote makes sense until the word “arrogance”. This word makes the scientists sounds as foolish as the atheists. I think the point of this quote is that you believe science will one day validate religion. Disdain and contempt fit.

This quote would be more effective if you used an exact parallel like the flat world or the earth-centered universe to make your point.
