The Christian religion not only was at first attended with miracles but even at this day cannot be believed by any reasonable person without one.
Religion must mainly be a matter of principles only. It cannot be a matter of rules. The moment it degenerates into rules it ceases to be a religion as it kills responsibility which is an essence of the true religious act.
I maintain that Truth is a pathless land and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever by any religion by any sect.
Any system of religion that has anything in it that shocks the mind of a child cannot be true.
Religion is the impotence of the human mind to deal with occurrences it cannot understand.
All who think cannot but see there is a sanction like that of religion which binds us in partnership in the serious work of the world.
We can live without religion and meditation but we cannot survive without human affection.
We cannot have that relationship if we only dictate or threaten and condemn those who disagree.
I do not think that Mulder trusts any one other than Scully. He s very solitary. She is the only one who takes him seriously. I don t know if they re in love. In a way their relationship is deeper than that because they cannot live without each other.
I cannot imagine having a physical relationship with a woman. I have not done that. But I really love women.
I didn't want to be the archetypal sponging brother-in-law so I didn't go into acting when I got to the States. I thought 'No I'll go to school and then I'll be an English teacher that'll be fun.' But I was horrible as a teacher. As hard as I tried I just couldn't inspire those kids to take an interest in Milton and Shakespeare and Donne.
