The religion which based on experience, which refuses dogmatic. If there's any religion that would cope the scientific needs it will be Buddhism.... ~ ~ All religion, my friend, is simply evolved out of fraud, fear, greed, imagination, and poetry ~ ~ Religion is love; in no case is it logic ~ ~ Unless we place our religion and our treasure in the same thing, religion will always be sacrificed. ~ ~ This would be the best of all possible worlds, if there were no religion in it ~ ~ Money is the wise man's religion ~ ~ Humanity without religion is like a serial killer without a chainsaw ~ ~ I do not know how to teach philosophy without becoming a disturber of established religion ~ ~ Generally speaking, the errors in religion are dangerous; those in philosophy only ridiculous ~ ~ One religion is as true as another ~ ~ The easy confidence with which I know another man's religion is folly teaches me to suspect that my own is also ~ ~ Happiness is a mystery like religion, and it should never be rationalized. ~ ~ The introduction of religious passion into politics is the end of honest politics, and the introduction of politics into religion is the prostitution of true religion ~ ~ Dangerous consequences will follow when politicians and rulers forget moral principles. Whether we believe in God or karma, ethics is the foundation of every religion. ~ ~ The principle of liberty and equality, if coupled with mere selfishness, will make men only devils, each trying to be independent that he may fight only for his own interest. And here is the need of religion and its power, to bring in the principle of benevolence and love to men. ~ ~ Christianity is the only religion on earth that has felt that omnipotence made God incomplete.

Buddhism owed its success to its catholic spirit and its beautiful morality. ~ ~ The many great gardens of the world, of literature and poetry, of painting and music, of religion and architecture, all make the point as clear as possible: The soul cannot thrive in the absence of a garden. If you don't want paradise, you are not human; and if you are not human, you don't have a soul ~ ~ I believe in the Church of Baseball. I tried all the major religions and most of the minor ones. I've worshipped Buddha, Allah, Brahma, Vishnu, Siva, trees, mushrooms and Isadora Duncan. I know things.
