Courtesy of The Raving Atheist:
    "All pretensions to theological knowledge should now be seen from the perspective of a man who was just beginning his day on the one hundredth floor of the World Trade Center on the morning of September 11, 2001, only to find his meandering thoughts -- of family and friends, of errands run and unrun, of coffee in need of sweetener -- inexplicably usurped by a choice of terrible starkness and simplicity: between being burned alive by jet fuel or leaping one thousand feet to the concrete below."

    -Sam Harris, The End of Faith
