"I think you are going to have coming out of science some statements as to the integrity of Universe discovered directly by a great many individuals. There are so many of high capability and integrity making such discoveries that they themselves wouldn’t even think of trying to persuade you. These people will avoid proselytizing, but more gradually their ranks will be joined by more and more scientists, and we are going to get to the point where a very large number of individuals will begin to recognize an integrity of Universe and an integrity of the total experience of life that will be of the order apparently experienced by the first great men, such as Christ.
“No one will be asked to believe anything. Everybody will make firsthand discoveries. What has been thought of as atheism is really just an evasion. It wasn’t a declaration of againstness, not something against religion, but there seemed to be nothing else to take its place.”
