Sunday, February 10, 2008Quotes of the Day"Those who are troubled by an apparent conflict between scientific and religious accounts of human origins may find it helpful to recall that different perspectives of life can be complementary.

As Galileo explained to the Grand Duchess Christina: 'The Bible teaches how to go to heaven, not how the heavens go.'"
