What harm would it do, if a man told a good strong lie for the sake of the good and for the Christian church… A lie out of necessity, a useful lie, a helpful lie, such lies would not be against God, he would accept them.
Martin Luther, cited by his secretary

Before you go, think about this…

Philip Pullman was raised in the Christian faith. His grandfather was a clergyman and he was “a pious child”.
My grandfather told me these things were true. Everyone else in the world told me they were true, as well. The general assumption of the world I lived in was that the Church knew the truth about things, that God lived in the sky, that Jesus was born at Christmas, when it was snowing. Because they told me about other things too, which later proved to be true, I saw no reason to disbelieve them when it came to this. What you don't do as a child, and what most adults don't do, I suppose, is read the gospels from beginning to end with a critical and inquiring eye. So you fail to see what's there in them all the time—that they are full of contradictions and inconsistencies. And this is very interesting. How is it possible to believe it all? And believe it all literaIly? That's the thing I don't understand.

The Wisdom of Carl
There’s a widely held perception that science is ’too hard’ for ordinary people. We can see this reflected in the statistic that only around 10 per cent of American high school students ever opt for a course in physics. What makes science too hard for Americans? What happened to the American genius for science, technical innovation and hard work? Americans once took enormous pride in their inventors, who pioneered the telegraph, telephone, electric light, phonograph, automobile and airplane. Except for computers, all that seems a thing of the past. Where did all that Yankee ingenuity go?
Carl Sagan, The Demon Haunted World (1996)
