Some really intelligent+funny quotes there,

Living creatures are too complex to have come about by chance; therefore, they must have had a designer. This argument of course, shoots itself in the foot...........that's before we even start on the other things he's expected to do, favor our side in a war -- (Laughter) -- disapprove of our sex lives and so on. (Laughter)
In my view, not only is science corrosive to religion; religion is corrosive to science.

"Religion doesn't seem to work like that. It has certain ideas at the heart of it, which we call 'sacred' or 'holy.' What it means is: here is an idea or a notion that you're not allowed to say anything bad about. You're just not. Why not? Because you're not. (Laughter)

Since his primary attack is on Church, the majority religion of his religion, I hope this post is not seen as negative to religion, but should be seen as in support of policy of non-interference of science and religion.

:no: trolls, :no: countries should be mentioned please. :)
