Criss Jami
“Religion, like science, is only noteworthy when it emphasizes a matter of what is true rather than whose belief is greater or lesser or which deity works for whom. Sincere religion and tested science are similar in that their assertions can be argued logically and objectively; otherwise, we get false cults and babble.”
Criss Jami, Killosophy

Sara Ellie MacKenzie
“If somebody is telling you there is one history, one people & one version of events, you should consider what side of history that they're on.”
Sara Ellie MacKenzie
