Oooooh... I didn't know we had any of these. I wonder what's on it...
Oh, him.

Brady: "Is is possible that something is holy to the celebrated agnostic?" Drummond: "Yes. The individual human mind. In a child's power to master the multiplication table, there is more sanctity than in all your shouted 'amens,' 'holy holies, and 'hosannas. An idea is a greater monument than a cathedral. And the advance of man's knowledge is a greater miracle than all the sticks turned to snakes or the parting of the waters. But, now, are we to forgo all this progress because Mr. Brady now frightens us with a fable?! Gentlemen, progress has never been a bargain. You have to pay for it. Sometimes I think there's a man who sits behind a counter and says, 'Alright, you can have a telephone, but you lose privacy and the charm of distance. 'Madam, you may vote, but at a price. You lose the right to retreat behind the powder-puff or your petticoat! 'Mr., you may conquer the air, but the birds will lose their wonder and the clouds will smell of gasoline. Darwin took us forward to a hilltop from where we could look back and see the way from which we came, but for this insight, and for this knowledge, we must abandon our faith in the pleasant poetry of Genesis."
