“The youth did not gather in a cozy pub for a pint of ale in order to talk about big ideas, as C. S. Lewis and his literary friends did at Oxford. No, they spent hours in bars, losing count of how many drinks they were consuming and hooking up with total strangers for sex.”

“As Saint Thomas Aquinas said, one should not try to defend the Christian faith with arguments that are so patently opposed to reason that the faith is made to look ridiculous and deserving of scorn.”

“Science and religion, though complementary, explore different spheres: Science can observe and measure only physical causes; religion concerns itself with the spiritual realm. Science can tell us what things are made of and how things work, but not the why. It can tell us that man is made of this and that, and that muscles work this way and not that way, but it cannot tell us why we exist in the first place, what our lives are for. Therefore, science cannot give us the principles we need to guide our actions. We must look elsewhere for those.”
