I found an interesting quote by Darwin about religion, no not
mike, the other one, Charles Darwin. In spite of the objections
of his very religious, but loving wife, he says  in his 1876
autobiography :


        "Disbelief crept over me at a very slow rate but at last was
        complete. The rate was so slow that I felt no distress, and have
        never since doubted even for a single second that my conclusion
        was correct. I can indeed hardly see how anyone ought to wish
        Christianity to be true; for if so the plain language of the text
        seems to show that the men who do not believe, and this would
        include my Father, Brother and almost all my best friends, will
        be everlastingly punished.
        And this is a damnable doctrine."
