The style of God venerated in the church, mosque, or synagogue seems completely different from the style of the natural universe.

The size of the universe depresses many people, but not me, I'm delighted at it

I think people often come to the synagogue, mosque, the church looking for God, and what we give them is religion.

You are a function of what the whole universe is doing in the same way that a wave is a function of what the whole ocean is doing.

You and I are all as much continuous with the physical universe as a wave is continuous with the ocean.

In other words, a person who is fanatic in matters of religion, and clings to certain ideas about the nature of God and the universe, becomes a person who has no faith at all.
