sunday sermonette

July 3, 2005

There is no rational ground of any sort or kind in keeping a child ignorant of anything that he may wish to know, whether on sex or on any other matter. And we shall never get a sane population until this fact is recognized in early education, which is impossible so long as the churches are able to control educational politics.

- Bertrand Russell

“Why I Am Not a Christian, and Other Essays on Religion and Related Subjects”, 1957 (p. 29)

Wow. Someone else has read _Why I Am Not a Christian_! That’s the best Independence Day post I’ve seen so far.
