"I see nothing about the human mind any more than about the weather that stands out as beyond the hope of understanding as a consequence of impersonal laws acting over billions of years."

The human mind acts purposively, creatively, constructively, with willful intent.

The weather doesn't.

He's right in questioning our language. There are not "purer" ways of thinking of God--we can use whatever word we like, but it's either God or not God. People who say, "I'm not religious, but I do believe in some cosmic order" are indeed believers in God.

I think he has a good point there. I like his unsparing intelligence...
