Quote of the Day

In which noted atheist, Richard Dawkins opines on God in Time (behind firewall):

"If there is a God, it's going to be a whole lot bigger and a whole lot more incomprehensible than anything that any theologian of any religion has ever proposed."

A statement to which I sort of added my own silent amen. This was part of a debate between Dawkins and Francis Collins, a leader in the field of genetics who is also a devout Christian. Oddly, I think the most fundamentalist strains of religion are the ones that shrink God the most from this incomprehensibility. Of course incomprehensibility leaves room for doubt, and for deviation from a narrow agenda. Never mind that even St. Paul hinted at a similar idea.
