[Religious belief is] outmoded and ridiculous. [Belief in gods was a] worn out but once useful crutch in mankind's journey towards truth. We consider the time has come for that crutch to be abandoned.It is a vacuous answer… To say that 'God made the world' is simply a more or less sophisticated way of saying that we don't understand how the universe originated.
